Statement of intent

For my NEA piece, I am going to work independently on Brief 4: music video and online to produce a three-minute music video for a fictional dance/artist signed to Universal Music and the working website for the band/artist. My production will be aimed at a culturally sophisticated, 16-25 class AB demographic. I am going to promote the fictional artist 'Reign' through the use of a quirky video, through the portrayal of a girl who represents my artist as the main singer along with two other fictional artists who will be featured in the video. They will be rolling in and out of shot whilst lip syncing different verses of the song, whilst the lighting alternates from red to white with the beat.

TITLE - I have decided I want my title for the home page to be plain and bold text, this will mean it can stand out against the colors and movement of my background without making the home page too distracting. POP UP - I will also have a pop-up window MUSIC VIDEO - my music video will be directly under the first part of my home page, meaning its accessible and labeled clearly. I will feature a short cl...
