When choosing which some to produce a music video for, I put in a lot of consideration as to which song I would be most successful with using what is available to me such as locations for settings, props, actors etc.
My initial ideas included:
1) Bloodstream - Ed Sheeran
2) Tenerife Sea - Ed Sheeran
3) Wishes - Rhodes
4) Shirtsleeve - Ed Sheeran
5) Closer - Chainsmokers
6) In the name of love - Martin Garrix
7) Mercy - Shawn Mendes
8) Millionaire - Digital Farm Animals
9) Wildfire - Seafret
10) Toothbrush - DNCE
Although most of my song choices were from the pop/R&B genre, some were more indie artists and my ideas for the videos would be to include the artists own style to give the video their influence and create verisimilitude for the audience. for example, for Toothbrush I would use actors that could dance to go through the daily routine using dance instead of normal movements.
It also came into consideration not to choose a song that had an existing music video as this would make it hard to produce one of the same standard. It would also influence my ideas subconsciously.
However, my partner and I have had many discussions and we have decided to use 'Jealous' by Labyrinth, the existing video is very simplistic and basic and our initial idea is very different, we plan to set the video in a cinema with the main subject witnessing all the things that is a theme within the lyrics, using cut ins.
