On Friday we have decided to re-shoot a dance scene we did in Westminister Bridge, as the quality of the video was really poor. We changed our mind about the whole dance itself and decided to replace this section with something else. We're first going to begin the scene with a graphic match of them holding hands from the restaurant scene, in addition this will lead to the final dance. Finally we have taken ideas from Devlin's video, to complete the rest of the replaced scene. In Devlin's video, a variety of jump shots have been used, (where Devlin stays in place while the female actress moves around in the background), we have decided to use this initial idea for our video as it would look really good and show that we have used complicated camera techniques. We have taken into consideration that this may be quite difficult however we are willing to give it a try.
When we were doing some research on digipaks of various artists from the RnB genre we came across something very unique and different in the album of Leona Lewis. Inside her CD digipak she had handwritten a message to all her fans, thanking them for all the support etc. When we make our own digipak we will also add a little paragraph at back as a message to all the fans of Jackie Boyz
Here are three CD covers of three different RnB artists; the first thing you instantly realise is that all three of the artists are on standing on the left hand side of the photo. This is a very dominant convention in this genre so we will take this on board when we are making our own CD cover which is also of the RnB genre.
We will make sure that the person we choose for our music video is either wearing a hat or has short hair if we want it to look like an actual RnB video.
The writing on these CD covers are quite big and bold, they are easy to read and all letters are upper case. In our digipak we will also use bold writing with capital letters so that people know that our music comes from the RnB genre.
This a collage we did to see all the different conventions and styles used in R&B music. Looking at these images it is evident that most of the male artists wear big sunglasses and usually are wearing some type of jewellery either chains or bracelets and even watches.

All three of them are young black male so the person we are going to use will also have to a young black male as it is one of the basic conventions of the RnB genre.

The main focus of the artists are "sex-appeal" as it is written in fancy bold writing on the image in the bottom right corner. And nearly all the artists are young black male or female so when we find a artist to feature in our music video we will also look for young black male to fit into this R&B genre.
Every artist seen in this collage male or female has short hair this in another aspect of R&B music we need to take into consideration when looking for our actor
CASSIE'S MUSIC VIDEO (UNABLE TO UPLOAD)
CASSIE'S MUSIC VIDEO (UNABLE TO UPLOAD)
In this music video voyeurism is used throughout. the main artist wears clothes which comliment her figure and to clearly attract the oppsite sex. she wears a flowing red dress which is above knee length to reveal her figure and to show her 'sexy' look.
In her music video she also has a dance routine in it as she wants to show her talented skills.
At one point in the music video a weblink named 'lovecassie.com' trying to sell the artist through the internet, which is very popular as the atrists mainly get more fans through the world wide web.
The genre of this music video is also R&B as the style of music and lyrics also the main artist is portraying herself as a good looking young lady being hard to get.. which is similar to other artists in their music videos.
in this music video it is shown at the end during the dance routine the main artist disappears... we (three-plus-one) had a similar idea for our music video of the song 'train of thought' by the jackie boys to have a dance routine and at the end the main girl disappears, leaving the main boy (artist) to realise he was fanticising or reminiscing. Now knowing in confidence that this idea is trust able as another R&B music video has the similar storyboard of the genre of our choice.

SEAN PAUL'S MUSIC VIDEO
this music video shows its Genre characteristics easily as we could see the characters and dancers used in it. the most dominant race shown are black which would show the audience that the genre could most likely be of R&B.
There is a relationship between the music and the visuals. i could say this as i could see the dancers dancing to the beat of the music.
voyeurism is constantly shown throughout this music video as the woman are more revealing. and are dancing in a more sexual way to attract attention from the opposite sex.
i noticed in this music video it is storyboarded on dances and a few shots of just the artisits singing to the camera. They show choreographed dances as well as free style, they have many shots of actors all around like in a cirlce and all their attention is being payed to the ones dancing in the middle.
similarly to my ideas of me and my groups music video, i had the idea of having a few dancers around in a cirlce and all eyes should be on our two main actors (artist and the main girl). i was unsure about this idea but after witnessing it on an actual R&B music video i may consider it as our music video would have a choreographed dance towards the end of the so

SHAYNE WARD'S MUSIC VIDEO
We have pitched an idea within our group (3 plus 1) which is similar to the Artist Shayne Wards music video, which is the idea of having thoughts or reminicing the times(feeling presence). It visualy shows the artist being there at the present time but the connotation behind this is that the artist is not there but the other person takes not much notice. The audience would only realise this by the end of the music video as it clearly shows a grave stone.
what our group 3 plus 1 have pitched was to have the story boarding which is of the artist to walk into his thoughts and show what could happen if he could get the girl. he'd be walking behind her which is simialr to Shayne ward as he walks behind the main girl and sings. the girl we plan to use would take not much notice of him being behind her but maybe turns around once or twice to show her smiling at him in a flirtacious way. Builing up his hopes
CHRIS BROWN'S MUSIC VIDEO
I have chosen this music video to analyse as it mostly related to our music genre of choice which is R&B. This music video also follow the aspects of music videos from Goodwins point of theory. I know this as Chris Browns lyrics have a relationship with the visuals of the video 'and i wont let you fall girl' we see Chris Brown jumping off the building to save her from falling.
The music and visuals also have a relationship as we could see the jump shots and cutaways put together to create a nicely paced visual along with the counts of the music and the beats. It also meet the demands to promote the artist as the music video uses many close ups nd long shots of the main artist.
The use of notion of looking has also been put to use as we have the main artist looking passed a crown straight to the camera from the girls point of view. Voyeurism is used in this music video to represent a good looking, very attractive young girl to engage a wider audiences attention. i know that voyeurism is being used as there are close up shots of her figure, also the main girl is wearing a short but revealing black dress.
This music video being similar to my choice of music and genre gave me a couple of ideas on how i could create a R&B music video. As the Main artist Chris Brown has a lot of close up shots of his face, also i noticed a little choreographed dance routine, there were good use of lighting which had an affect on the music video, mid-shots of the girl and chris brown and long shot of the two together, as well as over the shoulder shot which i may consider using for my music video.
