Hey There Delilah - Plain White T's
The chosen band and song to base our music video around is the band the 'Plain White T's' and their song 'Hey There Delilah'.
The are many reasons behind the choice of the song. The first being the popularity of the genre/sub genre. Due to the song and band being incorporated within three genres/sub genres, that being 'Alternate-Rock', 'Pop' and mainly 'Pop-Rock'. This allows us to attract three different audience groups which would increase the popularity and audience appreciation of the video itself.
The second reason being that the props needed such as a guitar and the clothes that can be indentified with the genre that being an 'indie' style, I and the rest of my team members already obtain.
This will make filming more effective and attractive to the audience through the appliance of gaze theory. It will also mean that the group will not have to waste time when trying to get the props as we have them already and this time is invaluable and can be used for other aspects of the project.
The third reason being that I and another member of our team are able to play the song 'Hey There Delilah' on the guitar. This is a big advantage as when filming this means we will be able to sync the playing with the sound of the song being played. This will make it look realistic and as though the person is actually playing the song. It also means that we will have a lead actor who is already part of the project and takes out the need for searching for a lead actor that would have the time to give up.
