Storyboards

This is the storyboard we have made to show the outlining shots of our video. The video will show Kyla performing with tropical projections on her, also on a bed. The video will be mainly performance shot based.

Digipak Photos

These are my favourites of my set of photos I took with my group. These are the photos just as they were took, no editing such as cropping has yet been done. As I was the model, my group member Emily took the photos the way I wanted. Im very pleased with the photos, and I believe they fit very well with our tropical house genre. 

Digipak Photoshoot

Tomorrow my group and I will be doing a photoshoot for our digipak, I am going to be the model for our artist. We originally wanted to shoot on a beach, however after considering the weather in England, and that no beach in England has the look we want it to. 

 So we've decided to shoot inside our school instead. This is because we worked out a way to bring the beach to us, using a projector to project images of it. I will be wearing three different costumes, picked out for each of my group members digipak designs. Im going to have natural make up, wavey hair and be tanned to fit our genre of tropical house. 

These are some examples of pictures we will be projecting

Poster Plan

 This is my poster for the promotion of the digipak design. Its main image will be a mid long shot of Kyla dancing in front of a huge sun over water, this will reflect the genre of house music and the beach/ summer aesthetic. 

Digipak Plan

 This is my plan for the design of my digipak. It features mid shots of our artist Kyla on what will be the front and back panels. With the backgrounds of these being beach projections. The house style will be a beach.The lyric book a pattern of palm trees. Disc 1 a sun setting over the sea and finally disc 2 will be a skyline from some where in Florida. 

Our Artists Name

Our group member Emily suggested the name 'Kyla' after one of our favourite house music producers Kygo. We wanted a name that was unique and one word so it would be recognisable and become iconic, and we all agreed Kyla fitted this criteria  Like artists Cher and Madonna, who have unusual names. 



This is the font we used on our mood board and could possibly be a logo for our artist. We used this font because it features the palm leafs inside which is iconography for our genre.

Our Final Song

For our final song we have chosen Felix Jaehn's "I Do". We chose this song as we all really like the song and its very unknown which means we wont be influenced by a previously existing artist.

Our Song Choices

My group and I had a few other song choices before deciding on I Do by Felix Jaehn. Other options where Come and Get It by Selena Gomez, Here For You by Gorgon City ft. Laura Welsh and Comeback by Ella Eyre.

As a group we really liked Comback and thought it would be fun to make a music for. We liked the upbeat music and the sassiness of the lyrics, which we thought would be fun to perform. However after looking at the video we were struggling to think of different idea. As the song is very narrative of a break up, which is her video is about. Another reason we didn't pick this song is that we prefer house genre music, than pop.

We all liked the song Come and Get It, it had the fast beat of a song we were looking for. It's a song that makes you want to dance however its not a dance genre song, which at this point is what were looking for. When looking at the existing music video the colour scheme wasn't something that inspired us as the colours were very rich and dark. Which does match the song however it doesn't fit my groups ultimate vision of faded colours.
 






Another song we looked at Here For You by Gorgon City, was the genre and my group and I wanted to do our music video for. It was one of our two final choices because we all previously knew and liked the song, but it wasn't as well known by a lot of other people. Therefore the original video wouldn't be recognisable. 







The last song in our options is I Do by Felix Jaehn. The song was to to the rest of the group as I suggested it from a compilation album, this means none of us knew of a music video so we new ideas and could be very imaginative. In fact there isn't a music video at all. It also fitted the exact genre we wanted to do , tropical house, a quite new genre that a lot of people aren't familiar with.

Audience Profile

DEMOGRAPHICS

Gender- female

Age Range- 16-24

Occupation- college/ university student

PYSCHOGRAPHICS

Kyle's target audience would be young women who enjoy partying and travelling. They would enjoy festivals such as Tomorrow Land, Coachella and Electric Daisy Carnival. They would like to explore and travel to hot places, which is reflected in the tropical house genre. They would use social media such as twitter and instagram frequently and own technology such as smart phones. They could be interested in their appearance and dress in alternative ways.

Mood Board

This is the 3-D palm tree we made for our mood board. We decided to make a palm tree because our artist is from Florida, where they are a common in places like the beach. It also gives a indication of the genre. We attached the pictures to the leaves to give a flowing effect.
