Plans for Shoot - Main Task and Ancillary Task

The studio scene in the video is also used for the photographs on the website and digipak

Site Plan - Main Task

For my outdoor shoots instead of drawing a site plan I took a screenshot of the area of the to give an exact representation of the area I will be filming in.

This is the location for my outdoor scene 

This is the location for my outdoor flashback scene 

At the start of my music video I am filming in a bedroom and then in a hallway this is a sight plan for this.

For the indoor flashback I am filming in a lounge here is a site plan for this. 

 Below is the site plan for the studio when I use it for my Lip Sync filming 

Test Lip Sync

I was unable to decide whether or not to include some lip-syncing in my video so I decided to do a test shoot. I asked one of my friends to sing a song that she liked and then I decided to see how it works. As this worked well and even though it was hard I was able to sync it well I have decided to include lip syncing in my video.

Company Logo

There are many company logos that already exist in the music industry and are very simple in design. Some of the biggest music companies in the world have simple yet effective logos.  Below are some example of this. 

The logo for virgin records is very simple as it uses the well known virgin simple as a large part of the logo meaning that people instantly know who the company is and to show that it is a music company they have simply written the word records underneath to show that it is a music label and show the difference between this and other virgin companies. 

The logo for this company is extremely simple. It contains 2 colours and the name of the company in a very simple and plain text. The label is very basic yet very effective as many people know of the company and the kind of people that the company have on their books. The text on the logo is easy to read meaning that people can easily tell what the company is called. 

For this logo the main part of the logo is larger than the second half of the name to really make it stand out and look good on the back of a CD or on a Website. The logo stands out and is very clear the depth  of the letters really makes them stand out but also make it look like the logo is popping out towards you.  This style really catches the persons attention and draws them into the logo.

In this logo the sweep of the brush shows off the logo and really catches you're eye when you look at it. The name of the company is placed at the bottom of the logo to make the shape above it stand out as the clear point of the logo. The text underneath is very simple and all the letters are the same height to make them clear and look all the same.

I will call my company GMA Entertainment

Target audience for existing products

For the digpak there are not that many examples so I decided to look at existing CD cases as I can take inspiration from these which will help me in making my digipak successful. 

In my chosen genre of music there are many existing products many of which will have simpler target audiences as me. I aim to make the CD and Webpage appealing to mainly girls aged under 25 as this is a nice wide range of people however I will also have to look at making it appeal to boys as well as she has some fans who are boys so I have to make it appealing to them. 

There are many existing products of these types aimed at this age group of people as they are a very typical age group to aim at as they are very influential. 

One product which was very useful to look at was Ariana Grande's ablum and website as she aims her products at people of a similar age to my target audience and her products are mainly aimed at females however it does also appeal to males in her target audience. It was really useful to look at her Cd and Webpage as she is a similar is a similar age to the artist of my song and she is trying to appeal to the same type of people as me so I can take inspiration from her website and album cover as she has done this successfully. 

Another person who has created their album cover and website successfully is Ella Eyre in order to appeal to her target audience which is people of a similar age to my target audience. I can also take inspiration from this as this is only this artists first album and it has been successfully marketed. These are good existing product to look at as she is a fairly unknown act and so is the artist of my song meaning that this is a good thing to look at because it helps show me good techniques that will make it appealing to my target audience and people within the target audience that have never heard of the artist.

Target Audience - Ancillary Task

The target audience of my ancillary task are very specific to make sure that it is successful in promoting itself but also the music video and the artist. As part of my research I discovered that the target audience who like this song and the idea of the story around it is aimed mainly at people under the age of 18 so this will be the same for the ancillary task to make sure that there is consistency between the products and the video and that it is all appealing to the same type of people. There is no point making the target audience for the video people under 18 and them aiming the Digipak and website at people aged over 50. It will be very important to market these things in a very specific place. I will create a twitter page and a Facebook page to go with the things that I have created and this will mean that my target audience are able to see everything in one place but also have direct link to the artist and are able to get involved with them. Social media is a good way to engage with my target audience because they are of an age where they spend a lot of time on social networking sites meaning that this is the best way in which to communicate with the target audience. Even though my main target audience is females under 18 years of age I will have to also make it appeal to males. Although I don’t feel like the artist and her songs have much appeal to males I know that she does have some male fans having been to a few of her concerts and seeing a few guys there who were singing her songs so I need to make it appeal to them but focus on appealing to the mass audience which is females. I will need to make the website look fun and have links to key social media but also make it informative and interesting with lots of details that the people will want to know. With the Digipak I will make it fun so to attract fans to it but also other people who may not have heard of her or her music, I will make it stand out and make it appealing to people of a similar age to me, I will find this easier than if it were aimed at people of a different age to me.

Secondary Research into Audience

Tich and her target audience

Tich is the artist that was chosen by the most people who took my survey about which song to do. Tich has an interesting variety of songs, some are drawn on from past experiences and some are just made up. Most of her songs are about love from her point of view meaning that the main audience for her is women however she also has a quite a lot of male fans. Her most poplar music are based on her personal experience however in some of videos that has been created around the song make it appear made up because what happens in the music video doesn't really happen in the real world. 

She currently only has 3 music videos which have been directed by 2 different directors, Paul Gardener and Rock Jacobs. Both directors have really taken into account what the song is about and if they can have put a bit of a fun spin on the video. The videos don't have a huge amount of views but this is down to the fact that she isn't a well known artist and she doesn't have a huge following of fans. 

Views on music videos as of the 19th of October 2015

Breathe in Breathe Out - 524,507
Obsession- 1,440,095

Dumb - 1,857,217

The low number of views on these music videos highlight the fact that she isn't a well known an popular artist and that she isn't really gaining any fans through the release of her music videos. As can be seen from the number of views on her videos on her youtube channel she doesn't really get that many views on her videos and on her music videos she gets around 5 times more views than on videos on her channel. This shows that even the music videos don't have a massive amount of views they have gained her fans due to the differences in the views on the video. 

Her songs and videos deal with issues that are relatable to her target audience of girls in their teen's and early 20's which would suit her well as it is a relate able age of her as she was 19 when her first album came out and is currently 22. By aiming her songs at people either of her own age or of a similar age it means that she isn't trying to appeal to people that she doesn't understand and doesn't know what appeals to them. Also by aiming her songs at people of a similar age to her it means that her songs can be based around her own personal experiences and they are still appealing to her target. 

Below are some screen shots from her music videos. 

For my music video, I will take into consideration that her videos don't seem to be to serious and try to bring out the funny side of the story being told. However with the song that has been chosen is about quite a serious matter and and I will also have to look at her more serious music video for breathe in breathe out to give me ideas. I feel that if I included both   comedy elements and serious elements it would really show off her style of music. I could possible include the funny elements in the flashbacks that I plan to include and have the serious element in the current part of the video.
