Back To Work

My first post on my new blog =] . its been awhile lol
i already have a task that i have to post on here soon when i get the bits for it.
But so far we have been given a task to create a Music Video for a band and so far we have come up with a few ideas in class today. We made a mood board for it which isnt complete yet but will be soon, and il post it on here to show what we have thought of. We have named our group Fudge and we also have a song for our Music Video. Young Love - by the Mystery Jets.




I like the style of this video since it is very different. Its very simple exsample the white background and the setting doesn't change often. The video is also flat based it is not 3dBut yet it works well. The artists dont move much either only up and down when being pushed by people in white suits. only their lips seem to move and their hands when pretending to play the instrument. Their all dressed pretty causual like their just practising somewhere. But they do use other colours in the video. The bright coloured letters that come up in sync to the artist singing.

Lyrics to the song: Mystery Jets Young Love

Lyrics to Young Love :(feat. Laura Marling)
If i only knew your name i'd go from door to door
searching all the crowded streets for the face that i once saw
if i only knew your name i'd go from door to door
tell me have you seen the girl i met just once before?

one night of love,nothing more nothing lesson
one night of love,to put my head in a mess
is that you on the bus? is that you on the train?
you wrote your number on my hand but it came off in the rain. X2

if i only knew your name i'd go from door to door
searching all the crowded streets for the face that i once saw
if i only knew your name i'd go from door to door
tell em have you seen the girl i met just once before

whoooaa.

young love never seems to left
far too young until they have a past
playing games,
people move so fast
you don't need eyes to see if someones got a heart of glass

young love never seems to last
far too young until they have a past
one night of love, nothing more nothing less
one night of lovethat left my heart in a mess

if i only knew your name i'd go from door to door
searching all the crowded streets for the face that i once saw
if i only knew your name i'd go from door to door
tell me have you seen the boy i met just once before?

whooaa
