Choosing the track


When choosing a track, we had many different ideas of what type of genre music and what conventions to include. Sarah wanted to do a rock/indie song as this is what she listens to so she would know many songs that would suit us. I wanted to do a pop song as the lyrics would be better to use as we can interpret them in different ways so we had more to work with. Shelby also wanted to do pop as she was the on who would be singing and pop is what she would feel most comfortable with.

We decided to watch a variety of music videos to see what we liked and what sort of ideas we could do. We found Katy Perry - "Last Friday Night" which we thought had really good ideas and conventions so we tried to look for a pop song that would have different lyric meanings but we could use the same idea. This was our research into finding the pop song

We also looked into rock/indie songs and i remembered a YouTuber i currently watch has a good song we could use so we watched that as a group and we all liked it however this song has copyright and we would need permission to use it. This ended up being the only rock/indie song we liked so we decided to use pop songs.
Here is the rock/indie song we wanted to use.

We was browsing through youtube with different songs and clicking on those that are similar in the suggestions can we came across many videos that could give us ideas and we also found the song we wanted to you. This song is Echosmith - "Cool Kids".
Here is the music video.
