From the beginning of the project our group had wanted to use the acoustic genre to create our video for. We had conducted research on the genre and listened to various artists on the Internet and on Cd's. When our group started to choose a song we were willing to listen to our first chosen artists own songs and see what we thought of them. After listening to her CD we decided that her songs were not exactly what we wanted for our video. Our group started researching songs again and picked a select few that we liked the sound of and thought that she would like to cover. The list read:
- Foundations by Kate Nash
- Break Even by The Script
- Thinking Of You by Katy Perry
- Somebody by Kings of Leon (Pixie Lott's Cover)
The groups final decision for our song was 'Use Somebody' originally by Kings of Leon, but we wanted it in the style of Pixie Lott's cover version. We chose this song because it was exactly the sound we wanted and we believed that this song gave us the potential to create a music video to the best of our ability and with an interesting and captivating narrative.
It is an interesting concept to do a cover of a cover! Your group worked well together and considered the song and genre that would fit best with your resources. The group have had an excellent level of care throughout the whole project and you are moving towards a Level 4.
