RESEARCH: Moodboard

This is the Moodboard i created for my project.

PLANNING: Permission Email

This is a copy of the permission email i sent to the record company who own "aint no rest for the wicked" to use the song for my coursework


Dear Sir or Madam

For our ‘A’ Level Media Studies coursework we have to make a music video to accompany a song. For our project we would like to use Ain’t No Rest For The Wicked by Cage The Elephant and are seeking your permission.

The resulting music video will not be used for commercial gain, will be hosted on a private coursework blog and also rendered on to DVD for the attention of our teacher and the coursework moderator. Should we not hear from you to the contrary within 14 days of the date of this email we will assume that your are happy for us to use this music under a fair use arrangement.

Should you require any further information please contact our teacher, Mr Scargill on scargill@guilsborough.northants.sch.uk

So far i have not received an email back.

PLANNING: Desicions

The song I have chosen to do for my Music Video is - Ain't no rest for the wicked By Cage The Elephant. I have chosen to work on my own to do this music video because not many people know the song and would be hard to do it well with people who don't know the song. Also I have a very strong idea of how I want the video to look already.

Preliminary task - Monster, The Automatic

This is my preliminary piece for the music video's.
