At GCSE level, for my practical production I created a music video to Florence and the machine-'The Dog Days are Over' after debating whether to make a video for that song or Leona Lewis-'Stop crying your heart out'. I was inspired to make a video to 'Stop Crying Your Heart Out' following watching the artist perform on the X Factor (Please see above) and was greatly intrested by the use of slow motion and black and white effects to accompany the song and create sympathy for the documentary style montage in the background of her performance. Unfrotunately, however I did not produce a music video to this song because I felt that the ideas I had would be too complex, and that at the time I was best suited to produce a one with simpler narrative. The task just seemed too daunting. 2 years later, however I feel that the abilities and skills that i have aquired as a result of media studies and producing videos as a hobby outside of college has built up my confiendece, and therefore I now feel much more capable of producing a music video to this song, expanding on some of the ideas that I had in 2009. I feel that this song, with it's great lyrical meaning will allow me to produce a heart warming, inspirational music video, which would result in many possibilities for a CD cover and Poster advertisment to accompany it.
