In this blog I will be showing and explaining the reasons why my group and I chose this particular music artist to create our music vide to i will also include a brief biography about my artist as well as the number of albums she has sold and the record label she is signed to and why.
The music artist my group has looked at is Ellie Goulding the reason for this is is because the genre of music the artistes musics comes under is indie and in many other videos that she has produces were not complex or set on a high budgets, the reason we chose this particular genre of music to create our music video to is because with this  particular Genre of music you can use simple ideas to represent the lyrics in the song and still have the same effect in the audience.

  1. This post demonstrates a basic understanding of your chosen music artist and this is because you have not explored your chosen artist in enough detail. Also you have not focused on specific music videos and you have not considered the codes and conventions of your chosen genre, which makes this basic.
