Final Music video

Note to moderator

Thank you for taking the time to look at my blog and I hope you've enjoyed how we progressed.

Evaluation question 3

Our media product has aspects of the synthpop genre interweaved amongst the other aspects we have included in the product itself, this has helped us create a unique media piece that challenges and utilises the normal conventions of its genre.
                The synthpop genre usually includes music videos that have a fast pace, quickly changing between shots to keep up with the pace of the song. They also use shots that are irrelevant to the song’s lyrics and these shots are nearly always concept based, emphasizing the unique image the genre has.

                Our music video utilises some of the features of the synthpop genre as it contains many fast playing shots as a normal music video would, this helps to keep our audience interested in our video. We also kept the main focus of the music video being revolved around the artist himself which is commonly seen within the genre. We challenged the normal conventions of the genre as we used little concept based shots within our music video, focusing on narrative based shots instead. This created a unique combination of fast shots to tell the story. This keeps the audience interested in the video as a whole.

Digipak final


This is what our digipak looks like once fully complete, each photo was edited individually and then they were assembled in an order we saw appealing in a new photo file.

Inspiration for Website






The inspiration for our website was the Martin Garrix website. The ideas that we used from the Martin Garrix website was the swiping motion of the pictures. We used some ideas from martin Garrix's website because he does music in a simiplar genre to Jayden Blake which means that it'll be a good template for our idea as it'll mean our website represents the genre synthpop aswell. Some similarities and differences between the two websites is that we used the idea of swiping from one picture to the other because it represents the fast moving music of synthpop. Although a difference we added a header into the website which is a change from the Martin Garrix website because Jayden Blake is a new artists and people visiting the website for the first time might not no who he is .
