Song Choice
We chose the song ‘Hold Back the River’, by James Bay, due to the strong
imagery it presented. As we decided we wanted a solely narrative based video
(as opposed to including live action); having a clear storyline, one that would
capture our audience’s attention, was of vital importance. We also chose the
song based on the variety it offered. We thought the sudden changes in pace
would create a less stable structure for the video and therefore intrigue our
audience more, as the video would be less predictable. We also knew it would
help us at the editing stage, as the layers of the song (the gradual addition
of different instruments) and changes in tempo meant that we would have clear
markers of when one shot needs to end and the next start.
