Options and Considerations

Romina and I have considered using the songs of a couple of artists, and in order to narrow these ideas down and come to a decision, we decided it would be best if we structured everything by writing short blurbs on each artist we have considered, explaining the image and sound they convey. Here are some of the artists that we have considered:

Charli XCX - Charlotte Aitchison is a 21 year old singer from Stevenage, Hertfordshire, England, and has been writing songs since she was 14. Her style of music can be described as 'Synthpop' 'Darkwave' and 'Electropop'. Her songs can also be described as dark, but catchy pop songs that stay in your head from months on end. I believe her fun, pop songs would be really interesting and fun sound to incorporate into our pop video.

Yuna - Yunalis Mat Zara'ai is a 27 year old Malaysian singer, songwriter and businesswoman. The particular song Romina and I were really passionate on using is titled, 'I Wanna Go'. The song is a stereotypical, however beautiful love song, and as I listened to it for the first time I already imagined how interesting it would be to bring this song to life. I imagined using plenty of long shots of beautiful scenery and using images such as flowers, the sky and all things colourful and beautiful to the eye.

Haim - 'Haim' is an American pop rock band from Los Angeles, Califoria. Haim's sound has been described as "nu-folk-meets-nineties-R&B" and have said that they are inspired by the likes of "Pat Benatar, Blondie, Gwen Stefani, The Pretenders and Queen." The interest that Romina and I have in this group is that they range from fun, upbeat sounds to slow and beautiful music, and we think this will be incredibly fun to experiment on as a music video.
