We were given the task to choose a song from MP3 unsigned website which we would then create a music video for. My partner in this task was Myles and despite only having two members whilst other groups had three we had a slight disadvantage but i feel like we did very well in the end.]with only having two members. The artist was a man named James Oakwood and since he had created a lot of engaging and i thought appealing songs I had spent a long time deciding which song would be best for me. So jumping to conclusion, that song I chose for me and Myles was called Ketchup Killer.
Immediately, from the title of the song I knew i didn't want our music video to be taken seriously because the title Ketchup Killer is not something i can tell our intended target audience which is 14-19 year olds would laugh if saw this song title. So i thought actually using a ketchup bottle and ketchup as the murder weapon was good to make this music video engaging and appealing to our target audience. The music genre that Ketchup Killer is within is Indie Pop, some examples of signed and current Indie Pop artists involves; AJR, Lily Allen, Ellie Goulding, Vampire Weekend and many other artists that produce similar style of music to our artist James Oakwood. The main thing that attracted me to this song and the artist James Oakwood himself was the fact that this song was something very unique and different to what i'm used to due to elements that this song has such as the constant beat to the song which makes it more interesting and better overall. Also, the fact that the song was called Ketchup Killer immediately attracted me for this song because i knew we could create somewhat of a comedy from this song which i think we did very well with due to the killings that were shown and the general story line we created.
