30th November 2012 - Demoraliser Gig

I am going to film the live performance of the Demoraliser gig tonight at Ringside. I have though of several different ways which I can sort the lighting out if it doesn't work properly. All the footage I get will be in my music video even if there is just little flashes on screen. 

27th November 2012 - Continents Gig.

I am starting to film my music video tonight at the Continents gig I am attending at Ringside. I can do several of my shot at the gig tonight. 

I am filming one of the mosh pits from this gig encase I cannot get near the front at the Demoraliser gig which is on Friday 30th November 2012. 

I was talking to the two people which are featuring in my music video and they are both coming to the gig so there is more chance I will be able to film tonight. The filming I do not get done tonight will be then finished during the week and Friday. This ensures I have enough time to edit my video when I have all the footage.

Present Music Videos - Demoraliser

This is Demoraliser's music video and it is not like the one which I am creating. This is because the music video I am creating has a couple of scenes of narrative but when it comes to the instrumental that is going to be a live performance of the band as long as I can get the correct lightning and it looks right. 

Ideas for my music video.

With me been able to get the actual band to be in my music video, I have decided on doing a live performance for my music video. Some of the footage will be filmed on the 30th November when Demoraliser come to Hull to play at Ringside.

When I have looked at the lyrics, it suggests that there is an argument between a couple, so I am including this in my music video. The argument will show that the boy is regretting what he has done to his girlfriend, and he will go out and let his anger out at the Demoraliser gig which is on the 30th November 2012. 

I am trying to get hold of a skateboard so the male can skateboard everywhere and come across different things like sitting down and thinking about what he has done, trying to get in touch with her, ringing her, texting her, skating to her house etc.

Audience Profile.

The audience of the genre of hardcore music is usually males due to the type of music and the feelings that are associated with the lyrics of the songs. However there is a fair few females that listen to this genre but not as many as males. The songs are generally focused at men I think because of the heaviness of the songs and the tunings. The listeners’ age doesn’t have a definitive age but I would say that the average would be 16-25 year olds. People younger than 16 would struggle to get into shows and gigs because the average age to be let in is 16+. The bands that are associated to 16-25 year olds because of the lyrics which is also in the song. The majority of band members are over the ages of 18 and 19.

The genre could be associated with older people because of when it started out. It started out on the back of punk and then slowly overtook it in popularity. Younger people that listen to it because of the rebellious side represented by it and the more the media publicise its upcoming popularity the more the younger people start listening to it.

 The audience usually find a haven in the music and can escape when listening to it. Outsiders to the genre think its noise but to fans of it, it provides self-security and an immense feeling of belonging. As well as a music genre its often described as a family which listeners will search for, a community that they feel accepts them for who they are.

Make-Up and Clothing Ideas.

My model will be wearing dark eye make-up. This is because this sort of make-up is associated with the Hardcore scene and I want my music video to look as realistic as possible. In the upcoming days to me shooting my music video I am going to practice this make-up look on my model so that we can get it right when it comes to filming. I am going to get my model to also wear fake eyelashes so that her eyelashes stand out against the rest of her make-up and make her eyes more noticeable. 

I am getting my model to wear a black high waisted skirt. This is because these types of skirts are in fashion and no matter what genre of music you listen to and follow the dress sense, you will always come across someone wearing a high wasited skirt. I am also going to get my model to wear either; patterned tights or I will buy some tights and put holes in them just to show that she can represent rebelious behaviour. 

I also want my model to have her nose pierced with a ring instead of a stud. The reason why I am doing this is because a lot of people within the hardcore genre have there noses pierced. My model is only 14 years old so I am getting her a fake nose ring because she isn't old enough to get the piercing and her parents will not approve.

I am also including red lipstick within the models costume because it stands out and will attract the viewers to her red lips. Red also connotates romance and even danger and in my video there is romance and even arguments.

I want my model to wear these shoes because it will go with the rest of her outfit and these are in fashion with people in the hardcore music scene and also other music scenes. 

I want my model to wear a top like this because it will go with the rest of the outfit but it will also fit in with the music scene.



















The t-shirt that the male is going to wear is a band shirt which will promote the local music scene in Hull. The band shirt which is featured is a Black Dogs t-shirt and they are in the same genre as Demoraliser so it works. There is various different band t-shirts which we will be able to use and we may use several different ones during the shooting of the music video.

My male model will also be wearing skinny jeans, we haven't decided which colour skinny jeans but it will probably be black or light blue. In the video we may use both pairs of jeans.

The vans shoes are known to the hardcore genre so I am getting my male model to wear these. These shoes are also associated with skateboards which I am trying to get so I can use it throughout my video.

Brutality Will Prevail - The Path:

The reason why I have put this storyboard on my blog is because this is how I want my music video to look and it has also influenced me.
