Below are profiles for the characters who will feature in my music video and the artist who recorded and released the song 'What If', Craig David. Doing this means that I have a clear idea of who they are, what they will look like and their roles in the narrative of the video.  'Craig David', however, won't be portrayed by an actor in the visual - the sole focus will be on the couple.

The below is a document detailing my song choice for my music video, ideas for the premise/synopsis and what may be in the video. Lyrics have also been included to guide me in creating my timeline and for the actors to lip sync to when we're filming the music video. Song choice, ideas/synopsis Song – What If by Craig David Ideas for synopsis/plot/premise Main character reminisces over lost love and tries to come to terms with it by taking a trip to a park.

Institutional research from the-hunger-games

As part of my research into promotion of R&B music, I have looked at different album adverts of the genre, investigating the ways in which images, fonts etc. have been applied in order to promote the artist and their music. Rihanna - Loud (2010) This album advert has embedded the cover of the album with the image used for the lead single 'Only Girl (In The World)', the latter of which features the artist crouched in a field, covering her body with what looks like a red sheet, thus informing the audience that this track will be included on the album and will feature the themes of vulnerability, protection and insecurity. White capitals have been used to emphasise the album's title (Loud), the artist (Rihanna) and the release date (November 16th), so that it can stand out from the red background and consumers can know when they'll be able to buy it and who is releasing it.

Analysis of survey results from the-hunger-games

Prince - 3121 (2006) Image: Prince, the artist, has his back facing away from the camera and has a hand against a wall, conveying mystery.  Orange-yellow, black and white have been used to form the main colour scheme of this digipak - they connote joy, warmth, darkness, sophistication, light, peace and purity, giving the audience an insight regarding the artist's nature and who he is as a person. The inside images fold outwards to show the album title in a different font, a pair of double doors and the CD, which zooms into the silhouette of Prince's face. Above those doors, a symbol located in between the numbers '31' and '21', which, when put together, create '3121', the full title of the album - this introduces audiences to the album and 'invites' them to listen to the music. Likewise, the booklet shows images of his home, including a lounge, a bedroom and the steps to what looks like a social area; Prince can ...
