The music channel my video should appear on

I believe that my music video should appear on either MTV or up your VIVA because these are the two channels which show pop video's.

Researching music channels for my music video to appear on

I have started to research different music channels for my music video to appear on. So what i did was looked up a range of different music channels and found out abit about each one. this is what i found;

MTV is an american network based in New York City that was launched in AUGUST 1981 . MTV distibutes a variety of music video genres such as pop, rock, heavy metal, indie RnB and hip hop. Due to MTV's diverse music range it is most likely that they will show my music video. MTV also has sister channels such as MTV TWO and MTV ROCK that are less likly to show my music video.

Kerrang! is a digital television station owned by Box television, it is loosely connected to the magazine Kerrang! The Tv channels playlist mainly consists of metal and pop punk. As Kerrang distribute music videos that are in the metal and pop punk genre i would say they are the least likly to air my music video as my genre is pop/RnB.

4Music is now the home for music/celebrity orientated shows and comedies that were once shown on Channel 4. It is a mix of music and comedy. Because 4music doesnt have a certain genre which they stick to they show a variety of music genres and for this reason this is a music channel which would probally show my music video.

Viva is a 24hour music and entertainment channel that was originally launched in Germany in 1993. This music channel distrubutes indie, pop rock and pop videos. The genres fit really close to my artist so they are likly to show my music video.

Filming The Dance

On tuesday night I filmed Taylor doing the contemporary dance for parts of my music video. Everything went according to plan we went into the drama hall and blacked it out and I used one single light which I placed on the floor and had it pointing towards Taylor and I filmed her movements through a mirror. I got different shots from different angles but made sure that I didnt cross the line.

On friday i asked taylor to show me the dance which she has created for my music video. This was so that i could see where i will need to place cameras and lights. We then came up with a date to film the dance which will be tonight in the drama hall at school.
