My Idea

My idea has been influenced by my research of the song genre which is R&B ballad, although the cover version I have chosen may be considered more of a pop genre. I have found that strong lyrical songs such as this one will tell a story within the text opposed to lots of dancing, which you may find in music videos such as ‘Just Dance’ by Lady Gaga. My idea links into the lyrics of the song. There are a lot of match on word opportunities for me to create within my video.

For my second idea I thought about doing a music video with dancing opposed to telling a story. This is because I feel that dancing may be an easier option for me to complete, and because dancing generally fits in with most R&B music. Dancing is what an audience watching an R&B video would normally expect because of the research I have done. For example in the music video for Beyonce’s ‘Single Ladies’ dancing is the main objective throughout. As in the video ‘Material Girls’ by Madonna, there is all dancing.
