R+P Post 8: Possible tracks for the single

To begin with, we all came up with 4 artists/bands we wanted to put forward and then we all voted on them, the two most popular were to be our final choices as we needed to narrow our idea. Our final task was to create a pros and cons list for them to

Below are our two final choices with the explanation as to why we picked Jorja Smith's On my mind.

Why we liked this song

• Similar to our Prelim as it was another band and we had some experience with editing bands
• Similar genre so we knew the conventions
• Super upbeat, could easily cut to the beat
• It was the more comfortable option as we could of easily had just two sets  

Why we didn't choose this song

• The fact that we needed to find extras to be apart of the band was too time consuming and no one we knew wanted to put in that much commitment
• We wanted more of a challenge since it was completely new to us
• It opened up endless possibilities for shooting

Why we liked this song and chose it

• Very interesting beat which we could do a lot with in terms of editing, shooting and camera angles
• It allowed for a clear narrative which we could add alongside the performance
• Practical as I could play the lead, no need to look for other artists
• It provided us with a challenge to expand the skills which we learnt from the Prelim
