NEW SONG CHOICE. B.O.B ft. Hayley Williams & Eminem. Airplanes.

Our first song choice was Bryan Adams - Summer of '69. After much deliberation, we chose to change our song, we didn't think that we had enough of a story line to proceed with our first song choice. 


I am now working as a group of 2 with Megan, we decided upon the song 'Airplanes' by B.O.B as we have many ideas on what we could put together to make a successful music video. The current music video created by the artists doesn't really have a story line to it, so therefore it also gives us a great opportunity as we won't be able to take ideas from their video. which means that the ideas are all ours and we will be able to take credit or them all. I would consider this song from the Rap/Hip Hop genre.


A few initial ideas in which we have had are; 


  • having our artists sitting on roof tops, this way we would be able to have them closer to the sky and the Airplanes.
  • we also had the idea of having many different people from entirely different backgrounds and then all of them being linked and brought together via a headphone cable.
  • another idea we had was to have all the different people linked via a star. 'the shooting star' this would have been ideal as then we could have had the link with the song, and not just something completely random.
We have also thought about what our ancillary tasks are going to contain and also look like. Here are a few ideas in which we have had.
  • we have thought about putting a few cut out pictures of the artists on the front cover.
  • having our main artist at the front and the other two placed more towards the back.
  • we have also had the idea of having different shots of the artists scattered all over a surface and making a collage out of them, with stars and aeroplanes around the outside.
  • we have decided that our digital pack is going to have a link to the song via the artists and the stars.
We need to create a poster for the advertisement of our song. 

Megan and myself have come up with a few ideas of how we could have the artists when they are performing. Here are a few ideas in which we have had; 



  • we are going to have our female performer sat on a bay window, holding on to a sentimental object. This is very precious to her as it means that she is getting over her tragedy. At the end of the song you see her on a rooftop with the other two performers and she has made it big. 
  • the performer who is taking the place of Eminem. We see him firstly in an environment of a gymnasium, this is where he grew up singing and rapping and where he has written his own songs.
  • B.O.B's performer will be in a room in which symbolises his character enormously, it represents and gives the audience a brilliant visual description in how he was brought up.
