Music Analysis

Music


First of all our group thought of typical teenage romantic comedy music like
"Pass that dutch - Missy Elliot"
Then we came across the music video for Lady Gaga which to our surprise had loads of shots and scenes that we were going to be filming in our opening sequence like partying, kissing, drunken mess, lipstick a girl writing on the mirror etc. so we decided that we would use
"just dance - lady gaga" for our opening scene.



This music video was a lot like what we wanted our film opening sequence to be like, only with more writing like the girl does on the mirror with her lipstick saying "dance" we thought we could introduce our characters this way, although not only with the lipstick on the mirror.

However after filming these shots, our group did not like the shooting effect and the way the filming looked, so decided not to use them shots introducing the characters and just simply have them coming up in the smoke of someone smoking a cigarette therefore also decided on the music to be:
"dirty little secret - all American rejects"



None of the shots in the music video relate to our film opening however the music is very teenage Rom com and the dirty little secret relates to our story line so we thought we would use both lady gaga and all American reject songs and have a sound bridge like they did in 10 things i hate about you.

After our rough cut editing and music, we could not have lady gaga's "Just dance" because where we placed it on our storyboard was non diegetic sound and was not aloud, so we used our Garage band music instead.
