Title: One Day - Kendall Mackie
Synopsis:
Our chosen song is about a relationship that ended badly so we decided to have a narrative based music video. We felt that this was the best option as the lyrics are easy to transform into a story effectively. We decided specifically on a non linear narrative; the first shots are going to be after the break up and flashbacks are going to be used to show the relationship from the beginning to the end. As well as using flashbacks we're going to use an amplified studio like setting thats repeated during the chorus. These shots will just focus on the artist singing into a microphone. At the start of the video the artist is going to be seen getting onto a train. We decided this was an effective idea as it symbolises that she is going on a journey both physically and emotionally. At the start of the journey she is upset about the break up and throughout the shots she is seen looking through photographs of them together, but by the end of the video before she gets off the train she is seen deleting them photos. This will suggest that by the end of the video she has stopped holding on to the past.
Key Genre Conventions:
The song we have chosen is of the pop/country genre as it is catchy and upbeat and contains lyrics about love and relationships. As the song we have chosen is of the pop genre our video will contain many close ups of the artist. As our song is also of the country genre we will also add in some typical conventions of country videos such as an acoustic guitar and plaid clothing. Our video will also establish a trade mark for our artist; her bright red hair. We will also make sure that our artist is dressed in stylish fashionable clothing as this is another key genre convention of a pop video.

Filming Day 1
Although I was not able to attend this day, the group filmed the first scene to our music video! We had a slight change in location as the dance studio we planned to use had been book so instead we used one of the Drama studios at our school. We also had a slight change in costume as our artist had misplaced her plaid so instead she wore a plain black t shirt as this would contrast with her hair and make her stand out. Overall we had a successful first day filming; we managed to get a large variety of great shots which we cant wait to use.

Lyrics
Lyrics!
Youre taking me for granted,
but you're the first thing on my mind.
Im tired of your excuses,
but i could never tell you a lie.
Try a little harder, even half as hard as i try
to win you over.
Bring me closer to you.
Show me what you want me to do.
One day you will see
you'll never find a girl like me.
One day you will see
we were always meant to be.
One day you will see
what it feels like to be me.
When i miss you,
when i kiss you,
when i'm with you
One day you will see.
You never show your emotions,
but i always let you in.
You're afraid of commitment.
I'm sick of being on and off again.
You gotta make your mind up.
Tell me what its gonna take,
to win you over.
Bring me closer to you.
Show me what you want me to do.
One day you will see
you'll never find a girl like me.
One day you will see
we were always meant to be.
One day you will see
what it feels like to be me.
When i miss you,
when i kiss you,
when i'm with you
One day you will see.
Ive waited here for so long.
For you to show your face or atleast call.
Cant you see that we belong?
Why cant we be together?
One day you will see
you'll never find a girl like me.
One day you will see
you'll never find a girl like me.
One day you will see
we were always meant to be.
One day you will see
what it feels like to be me.
When i miss you,
when i kiss you,
when i'm with you.
One day you will see
you'll never find a girl like me.
One day you will see
we were always meant to be.
One day you will see
what it feels like to be me.
When i miss you,
when i kiss you,
when i'm with you
When i miss you,
when i kiss you,
when i'm with you
When i miss you,
when i kiss you,
when i'm with you
One day you will see.

Audience Research - Vox Pop
Today on 10/14/14, we conducted some audience research which included asking people questions relating to music videos. Our questions were the following;
1. What is your favourite genre of music video?
This question allows us to look into what kind of music the people around us are into, which lets us gauge how well our video will do.
2. Who is your favourite artist/group?
This question is further investigating what kind of music our peers listen to regularly.
3. Do you watch music videos regularly?
This question helps us to better understand whether or not what we are producing will be liked by our peers, which is important because it helps us establish who our target audience should be.
4. What platform do you watch them on?
This question helps us understand where we should upload our video and make it available for it to get the most exposure.
5. What is your favourite music video and why?
This question may influence how we edit, and whether or not we try to replicate certain editing styles of some of the named videos.
These questions allowed us to sample what genre was popular among our peer group.
