Different Song Ideas

One of our song choice ideas was The City-Ed Sheeran. We liked this song as it was a song based on city life,and as we wanted to base our video in and around London we believed this would be a good choice of song. Also as Ed is a quirky singer and fits into the indie genre we thought this would be a good choice.
Although possible limitations of using this song would be having to use a male performer, this would be hard to rely upon during filming and using a memer of our own group would be easier.



Another song choice idea was Skinny Genes- Eliza Doolittle. We liked this song due to its quirkiness and upbeat message, we also could fit it into our desired London theme. Also as it features a female singer we could easily use a member of our group rather than having to rely on another individual which could possibly hold back filming progress. We also liked this song as due to its happy message we could use bright colours and use potential street art to add to the quirkiness ofthe song. Also as it is sung by a female we could potentially a male love interest to add a storyline for viewers to follow. Bad points about this is that we don't want to look to copycat to the artist or video, so need to think of original ideas that are not similar to the original video.



Another song idea we had was I Wish I Was A Punkrocker- Sandi Thom. We liked this song as it was upbeat and soulful and again found it would fit in well with our London theme. We also liked the original video and wanted to use a similar panning shot of the main character walking towards the camera. Although the bad point of the song is that the lyrics are very obvious and it was hard for us to think of ideas for what we could do with the song.
