Chat with Leanne;

This is my feedback session that I had to have with Leanne. We got to discuss many things but predominantly the main focus of this talk and chat was to talk about how Goodwin will influence me with my music video and to the think how possibly Goodwin did not have to influence me with certain things that he thought about in his approach to a conventional music video. I like the fact that I got to chat to Leanne in detail about my decisions but I do think that I need to still clear some things.

Leanne and me first of all discussed all of the features that are evident in music videos that Goodwin found. To begin with, I told her all of the principles that I followed with examples such as the link between lyrics and music and the link between visuals and music. My first clear link between the visuals and the lyrics is the lyric; “girl put your records on” followed by a record player getting put on and an iPod being plugged in.

The only thing that I thought that I should not follow that Goodwin found was an intertextual reference and this is because they are generally hard to find for my genre. When speaking to Leanne she said that I should try and possibly think of something that could be reference; whether this is a film, a show or another artist. When speaking to Leanne I found that I could possibly link an icon in the Jazz industry such as Ella Fitzgerald. This could mean a certain hairdo or a prop that would be reflective of her character.

Other than this Leanne said that she was happy with my current progress and the look of my correct project. As a result of this meeting I will now make improvements to the project that I am making. I hope that this makes my project better; I will post in the upcoming weeks.
