Track Choice

Today is the day that I have decided to finally sit down and try and choose which of the many great tracks I have pondered upon that I want to use in my production. I have spent the past few hours listening to Olly Murs's new album 'Right Place, Right Time'. I have been judging the different tracks on the compatibility to a music video, what I mean by this is I have been rating the different tracks and selecting the tracks I feel have the correct hook and the correct beat to fit a production of my potential standard.

I had narrowed it down to two seperate tracks, as shown below.

1. Olly Murs - Army of Two

 

2. Olly Murs - What a  Buzz



After going over the option of both song's I have decided I would much prefer to create a music video for choice #2 - What A Buzz. I have come to this decision by concluding a number of different things, I personally feel that within my music video I would like the chorus to be a product of a Lip-Sync, I feel that this song would allow this to be done very well as the Chorus and Verses are clearly separated. I also feel the upbeat and happy style of the song would allow myself to use different clips over-laid on the track and it suit it well. However with Army of Two I feel it is of more a type of song that isn't as related to the lyrics in terms of a video and would be best suited with a Lip-Sync throughout which is not the product I wish to produce. I also feel very happy that What A Buzz as a track is a reasonable length, not to short, not to long at 3:10. This will give me enough time to produce something of high quality and show a variety of different camera techniques, as well as editing skills throughout the production, without over-doing it.
