This photo was taken of me and my group researching what song to choose to do for the final production. My group which is Alex Sodimu on the left, Darren Cousins in the middle and Me on the right were all researching songs seperately for ideas to give to one anohter. The requirements of the music video was that the song was either 10 years old or older, or if the song was new but didnt have a release of a video. This was because its harder to come up with original ideas if the song has a new relevant video.  As we were researching we drew up a shortlist of potential songs we wanted to do regarding our ideas. The songs on this shortlist were: Bruno Mars- The other side, Bruno Mars- Runaway Baby, Labrinth- Sweet Riot and Ed Sheeran- Grade 8. As a group we then decided together which one we wanted to do. We did this by firstly discussing our ideas on each song and removing a song at a time. After looking at the lyrics of the songs and discussing our individual ideas we came up with Ed Sheerans Grade 8 song. This was a hard decision to make because there were so many songs to choose from and we had good ideas for many of them but overall we all had some good relevant points to the wording of the songs, and we all knew the song which is why we picked it as our final music video production piece.
