Song Change

We have decided to change our song from Postcard by Bridgit Mendler to Velvet Elvis by Alex Winston after a lot of discussion. We believe that this change allow us to have more of a creative input on the video and how it can be interpreted.
Postcard was a song that needed a narrative to go with it, and the narrative that we felt it needed was far too complex for us to achieve in the short amount of time we were filming. We felt that if we attempted to film a music video for that song, it would end up being a low standard that would not show our capability as media students. For example, the lyrics talked about girls playing baseball and boys doing ballet and being into fashion - but we decided that we could not rely on enough actors to turn up on time to partake in the shooting. Therefore we then decided it should be a performance video, but felt that a performance would not be appropriate for the song. Thus we decided to choose a different song and create a video that we felt we could put our own creative imprint on.
