Melanie martinez- Carousel

Music video case study

Music video pitch

Brainstorming idea

I will be working by myself so I will be doing all of the production roles.




Research

 

The client for this music video will be Atlantic records and Melanie Martinez. The song that I have chosen to make a music video for is cake.

Genre: pop/ alternative

 

The idea for my music video is to create the video in a similar style to the artist creating a storyline in a way that’s known by the artist and fan base. 

 

The resources I will need are the song, a camera to record on, a boom mic and a studio to film in.

 

Pros

Shows creativity

Allows me to create something the artist might like

Allows me to interpret the artist style in my own way

Cons

I may have issues with copyright

Problems with the fan base

 

Development of idea

Costume: burgundy dress, white socks and black skirt, white top, white socks.

Location: studio- grey backdrop.

Constraints:

The constraints are that I will be working by myself so having to film and be in the video will be a challenge, another constraint will be time because I want to be able to finish it on time. Legal and ethical consideration would be that I have to ask permission to use the studio and to use the song to avoid copyright.

Research
