Research & Planning: Artists Appearance (The Jacques)

We decided to contact the band to be in the music video to illustrate their orginality. they firstly argreed to be in our production. Though a slight change of plans of the band, they decided to back up and not become part of our production. This lead us to histation and issue to change our whole plan and song selection. However, I came up with the a decent plan to keep our ideas togther and keep it the same but alter our atrists choice, by having young people becoming/ pretending to be the band.

To add to that, now that we couldnt use the band, and came up with a concept which could portray the band without using the artists, we found a past albums through our research. They have frequently used images of childeren with different effects on them, which would support our idea for using children to represend the band.
For example this these two albums

We decided to choose a girl that is in love with this band and especially in love with this particular song we selected (the weekend). We found our artist quicker than we thought, as one of our team members sister was the perfect for this role. She will be presented as our main artist. We as a group think that she fits the role and character of a main vocalist singer really well from her authentic look, in addition to this, she also looks visually similar to the lead singer in The Jacques band (Fin Jacques). She visually has simialr hair style as it is short towards the sholder and same hair/eye colour as main artist in the band.

For the rest of the band members we decided to select friends of of our chosen lead singer. This will enable them to have a strong connection and chemistry, just like the The Jaques band, which means that they will be able to be more energetic during the perforemance due to their confidence therefore stronger relation between them (our chosen band). 

In terms of costume, we revolved around the idea of our artist dressing and style, which compliments the uniqueness of the song itself. We wanted to keep our choosen artists costume relatively simple, which allows the audience to focus more on alternative aspects of the music video.
