Humpty Dumpty and Goldilocks - Why?

My group and I chose to merge our ideas of the Humpty Dumpty rhyme and the Goldilocks story for our groups piece. We used the Humpty Dumpty rhyme as it features a real climactic moment when Humpty falls from the big wall. We merged that with the idea of Goldilocks becoming a murderous outlaw and Humpty Dumpty becoming her victim. Goldilocks was used due to the fantastic story with a hidden message, don't steal or intrude. I think that merging these two stories together made for a comedic yet serious final product, plus the stories were two personal favourites of mine growing up.

Need U 100% (Duke Demont) by Andrew Goldman - Unit 5 Music

Unit 5 Music

My song

The song I’d like to use is called ‘Turn Down For What’

Who sang it? DJ Snake and Lil Jon

Ideas Why: Simply a crazy mimic of the video used. Use certain elements of the video and attempt to recreate them. The bright colours and insane situations would be a real a real challenge, meanwhile being incredibly fun.

Music Videos

Performance: A performance video shows the artist or band performing in a live type of format. This feature generally consists of members of the band or the artist lip syncing to their own song. It is a common feature in music videos and is low budget. However despite the low budget approach is helps the audience feel as though they are at a live show watching them. Here is an example.   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPvuNsRccVw 

Narrative: This feature generally has the song as the story background, telling the story with words while something is happening on screen which correlates with it. This can be done by using actors or animation. Here is an example. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqMSqLX9vvY

Conceptual: Conceptual videos are based around a single idea or concept and are generally quite different, even surreal for the audience. This unusual content is an attraction to many consumers, which draws them in. Here is an example. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kemivUKb4f4&list=PL994B215A02BC2DFE
