Planning & researching: Audiences

Audience research is important to meet our audience demands to incorprate it in our music videos.
we need to understand our listeners
Our chosen band The Jacques works with Indie Rock style genre, whcih means the audience that consume and enjoys to listen to that style of genre would be attract to the band and their song. However, The Jacques were the first to form a band and start at a very young age for Indie Rock genre. This means that their target audience would have started with drawing young teeager's attention to expand and become more rapidly well-known within the community.

I researched audience preferences of theire faviourite genre and the most popluar genre:
From looking at the pie charts the most prefered genre is Pop, Indie, Rock and alternative.

I then researched the most viewed or most top 5 global known music videos and their type of genre on youtube to compare it with the pie chart data. This is also to understand what people like. We as a group decided to look closely at the videos conventions such as, lighting, style of editing, camera set ups, and amount of shots, and perhaps use some of the conventions within our music video. The conventions help enage the demographic audience as what they would be watching is what they expected to see.

In our research the first song was most viewed by most of the global audience is 'Gangnam Style' by PSY. It reached about 2,541,784,147 (2.5 billion) views. It was puplished in 2012 and it is still going on around hearing it where ever you go. On the second chart, comes along 'See You Again' by Wiz Khalifa, and it has roughly about 1,576,249,923 (1.6 billion) viwers. It was puplished in 2015. The third on the top 10 chart comes, 'Blank Space' by tyler swift with reaching roughly 1,529,902,797 (1.5 billion) views. This was puplished in 2014. The next song on the top 10 chart, the fourth in line is 'Uptown Funk' by Mark Ranson with 1,467,279,754 (almost 1.5 billion) views. Final but not least, the top 5th on the chart is by Taylor swift 'Shake It Off' with 1,386,951,297 (around 1.4 billion) views. All these top 5 most viwed song are catogrised as pop genre.
