There are three things you cover over the next half term.
1 - Research investigation buffer
The first two weeks will be spent responding to your teacher's feedback and polishing up your research investigation to receive the highest possible grade. Some of you will have a lot more to complete than others, so during the second week, you may move on to preproduction tasks for the music video
2 - Introduction to the music industry
In order to make a music video, you're going to have to learn about the music industry itself. These three weeks will look at many key concepts behind the music industry, and will also allow you to brush up on the most important aspects of A2 - genre, narrative, representation, audience and industry.
3 - Music video pre-production
After forming a group of two and selecting a song from the shortlist, he final two weeks of this half term will be spent completing pre-production work, which will vary wildly depending on who you are working with and what song you choose.
Important note - production of the A2 music video will commence the week starting Monday 30th October. All aspects of your music video, including costume, setting, performers, lighting, props, rehearsals and so on need to be completed before this date, as the expectation is that you will be filming from this session. Deadlines for the production itself will be published before the half-term.
