Week 2, Choosing the group. Selection of the Music.



Week two was eventual in starting to create the strategy for creation of future music video.  The discussion in the class showed the interests of all classmates, and we started to form the groups. Due to the fact that we know each other for more than 3 years, we already have experience in working with each other. Without hesitation my group initiated to create a funny, or a stop motion video. Therefore, according to experience in team work, and similar tasted we formed a group of 3 representatives: Irina Litovcenco, Valeria Dauhalevich and me.
Right after the formation of the group we started to discuss our ideas, and proposed the music that we thought to be the best for the funny and 'easy to watch' video, that reflects the lyrics of the background music. As a result we came up with a list of 6 songs that could be appropriate for this style. Today, we spent the whole day in researching, and brainstorming on the ideas. We overview the list of music we created of Monday and added several new ones, that were either suggested by friends, or came to our mind within a week. In addition, due to the fact that Irina was ill, and could not attend the Monday seminar, she brought in her new ideas. We deeply analysed the lyrics of the music, and brainstormend on possible visuals. After analysing the play list we collected, we stroke out the ones that  could have an offensive image.

Therefore, by the end of our meeting we defined 3 possible music covers of our videos: and these were:
Noah and the whale – 5 years time
USA - Kolektiv Dubioza

According to the class assignment we wrote official letter to all of the bands, and within next week will be waiting for their replies. As a back up plan, we have in mind to contact our friends musicians, and find those who have their own music and interested in shooting the video.
