Erick Baker

We are to make a promo music video in order

to expand the artist fan number, increase

artist popularity, to promote further music

from the artist and to create a digipak for the

artist’s CD. On top of this no money will be

needed to be spent for this music video.

Eric Baker is a solo artist who is in the indie/pop

genre, his style of music is acoustic and most of

his songs only involve the acoustic guitar.

What makes him different from many other artists

is that all he needs to make music is his voice

and his guitar where others would use other

instruments , percussion and editing equipment.

His demographics would be people that like to

listen to folk/acoustic music so he would have a

wide range of different audiences.

The video will feature two actors two locations. The actor are Chris

Thomson and the other is an actress, Katie Edmead. The video

will consist of jumping back forth from past to present , the past

shots will involve both Chris and Katie. The past shots will show

Chris singing on an empty stage with just a guitar, Katie will catch

him singing about her and sneak around the back of the stage

where Chris will turn around and see Katie watching him when

she then walks towards him and starts dancing. The next part we

will see Chris and Katie dancing together.

The present shot is a very simple one. All that

consists in this shot is Chris singing about

what happened in the past, we keep seeing

flash backs of the past constantly throughout

the video indicating that he is in love with this

girl that he dances with and sings about.

The setting of the video consists of two locations. One is an empty stage at Robert Clack upper school. We used this location because not only was the stage big but it had a back passage where Katie was able to walk down and end up on stage without being seen, this worked well because when Chris sees her it is obvious he wasn’t expecting her because he stops singing and stops playing the guitar.

The second setting was the band room at Robert Clack lower school, this was used because it was secluded from everything making it Chris’s private area where he can express his feelings.

The main emotions that will be throughout the

video is closure, disbelief and a feeling of true

love. The disbelief will be the past shot where

Katie has spotted Chris singing and she sneaks

round the back. Closure is shown when they

start dancing together. The camera work will

show closure by keeping both characters in shot

whilst dancing. Disbelief face Closure True love

There wont be many props that will be used.

They are the guitar and the chair. This was

the only props that we used.
