to make a music video for one of their tracks. They are an unsigned indie-rock band from Cambridge. There are five band members in the band. They have played several gigs around Cambridge, such as The Junction Fiver on several occasions and also gigs at Man On The Moon.By the time it came to choosing a song to make the music video, they only had two tracks to choose from. The first track was fairly slow paced which wasn't what I wanted to make a video for, so instead I listened to a track called 'Oil'. This track was a lot more fast paced and was a lot more enjoyable to listen to on a whole.
The Band Members
1) George - Vocals
2) JJ - Guitar
2) JJ - Guitar
3) TT - bass
4) Oli - Guitar
5) Chris - Drums
I was approached by JJ, who I have known for a number of years. He explained that t
he band wanted a music video made to help increase the popularity of the band. Having learnt that the have played at the Junction Fiver, I made the assumption that the majority of the band's audience are teenagers so in some way, I had to make sure that the video appealed to the teenager's target audience. Hence the decision to make a music video based on listening to Oil.

They gave me the freedom to do whatever I wanted with this video, but I insisted on working with them more closely so that by the end of this project, we would all walk away with having a strong video that they can also use to increse their online image. I got the impression that from the friendliness of the band, that it would be quite enjoyable to work with them.
