Evaluation Question One-
In what way does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
How is the chosen genre represented?
I have chosen the genre pop and I have presented a romance throughout my music video as this is a very common story to tell within a pop music video. As a romantic story, the plot usually ends in a happy ending ( a happily ever after). However, I planned for my storyline to have a happily ever after but have a bad patch in the middle. This is because I wanted it to be more realistic and relationships aren't ever perfect.
Usually, the aim of the storyline is to captivate the audience and entice them to want to watch your music video. The romantic story should contain a climax and a true narrative. For my coursework, I have really pushed myself to achieve the exact romantic storyline that I wanted. I've presented the pop genre in the traditional way and ensured that the love story is there throughout. The flashbacks I have used are highly important as they signify the journey the couple have been through. In our generation most people have a pessimistic approach to relationships. They tend to overthink situations and therefore break down there relationships. I have presented this throughout my music video quite clearly. Often couples find flashbacks the hardest things to deal with. Even if two people have come to terms with their break up they may still suffer from the flashbacks that they live with every day. Therefore I have chosen to use flashbacks so that I am able to connect with my audience. Because most people have been through a relationship and suffered then they can relate too my music video.
Storyline-
The story line for my music video begins with a couple happily in love enjoying life. The lighting is quite cheerful and the narrative is very happy at this stage. In Taylor Swift's music video this is a common story line, the couple being happy and not having any issues. However, as the story line goes on we see the relationship start to unroll. As the relationship gets worse the relationship starts to suffer this is where the cheerful flashbacks start to come in. They show the loving moments where the girl and boy are enjoying their time together round by the lake. There is no dialogue as the music matches the situations shown on the video. When the flashbacks are shown you can see the seasons and holidays that the couple have been on. These are the important flashbacks as it is the couples special memories that should be cherished. To represent the memories and the time that they have been together I have shown the different holidays that the couple have been on. The lighting is brighter in these representing and journey they have been on.
Taylor Swifts music videos usually contain a perfect love story with not many faults. I wanted to challenge this by leaving the end of my music video as an unfinished love story to the audience. This makes the audience a lot more eager to know what happens next. I believe this will make the buyer want to watch more of A&G RECORDS music videos. I believe this is a massive selling point in the pop industry.
