For our music video, we have decided to use
the song “Goodbye My Lover” by the artist James Blunt. He is a popular artist
and was in his prime about 10 years ago when he released his album receiving three
awards. Since then he has released a few singles but has not been releasing as
many songs.
We chose this artist because his style of
genre is pop rock and his songs are generally of a slow tempo. By doing this it
means that when we use techniques such as lip synching, we can perform it as professionally
as possible so it looks good and realistic. However, if we were to pick a rap
song with a high tempo of lyrics it would mean the performer in our video would
not be able to keep up. This song also gives us a narrative to work with, it
gives us a picture in our head of what we think it is going to look like which
goes into juxtaposition with a Calvin Harris song for example where the video
could go anywhere and doesn’t have a particular clear narrative.
