Choosing Music Track

When in the planning process of the music video production choosing the music track took a lot of time and consideration as it was a key part to the final video. To choose a music track we thought of pros to a chosen song and cons to a chosen song. We where aiming for a music track with minimal lyrics in there as we knew that would be harder to match up to any footage we have and may not necessarily suit. We aimed for a song that was mainly a beat rather than actual lyrics over the top as we did not want the lyrics to be to recognisable as it may take away the effect of the actual video footage itself. In terms of songs we managed to narrow it down to 3 that we all agreed on and all thought were appropriate for the production. However, we did not choose the final song until all footage was filmed and edited together. The reason for this is because we wasn't sure how each individual song would mesh together, whether it would go or not.

Here are each of the songs that we considered playing as audio over the top of the footage.

                                                             Afrojack Rock The House 



                                 Dimitri Vegas, MOGUAI & Like Mike - Mammoth (Original Mix)


                                              Carnage & Borgore - Incredible (Original Mix)

Each song had a strong defined beat to it and no lyrics which was perfect for what we wanted to achieve.
