Costume moodboard

When deciding on a costume for my actors I knew i would need to purchase the clothing. I have used many bands/artist from the genre of my track to find a suitable costume. I have used photos from shoots of the artists for my research.

A list of possibilities:

• Blazer, shirt and tie
• Blazer and tee
• Shirts and jacket
• Tee
• Full suit.

These seem to be the most common for the genre of my track and looking at the photos a mix of the above would be suitable for the video.

Research into album covers.

I have been looking into different album cover within the genre of my chosen track using artists such as Death cab for cutie, the Shins and Muse. 

These are all album covers from the bands first albums the first two are very simplistic and have the same colour scheme of blue and white, whereas the other is slightly more complicated with an image and background.

These are the album covers of the bands most recent albums(2012) the first two have changed colour schemes but one is still simplistic but the other is more of an image and a background. The 3rd cover is similar to its first cover still with a background and an image. I think for my album cover it will be a mix of both simple and images with background and relate to the name of the album or band name.

Research into similar bands/artists logos

To create a successful brand for my chosen track, I will have to research into similar bands and artists logos to create a appropraite one of my own.

 

These logos have many similarities, one of which is that the name of the band/ artist seems the be the main feature. I will try and use these as an influnce when creating mine. Another similarity is that the name is in bold and capital letters, trying to make sure that it is remembered. I think if an image will work well along with the name of my artist.

Lyrics from my chosen track.

I am thinking it's a sign that the freckles
In our eyes are mirror images and when
We kiss they're perfectly aligned
And I have to speculate that God himself
Did make us into corresponding shapes like
Puzzle pieces from the clay
True, it may seem like a stretch, but
Its thoughts like this that catch my troubled
Head when you're away when I am missing you to death
When you are out there on the road for
Several weeks of shows and when you scan
The radio, I hope this song will guide you home

They won't see us waving from such great
Heights, 'come down now,' they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away,
'come down now,' but we'll stay...

I tried my best to leave this all on your
Machine but the persistent beat it sounded
Thin upon listening
That frankly will not fly. you will hear
The shrillest highs and lowest lows with
The windows down when this is guiding you home

They won't see us waving from such great
Heights, 'come down now,' they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away,
'come down now,' but we'll stay...

Instrumental

They won't see us waving from such great
Heights, 'come down now,' they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away,
'come down now,' but we'll stay...

They won't see us waving from such great
Heights, 'come down now,' they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away,
'come down now,' but we'll stay...
