Here is some inspiration for my music piece. I am not wholly inspired by what is going on in the texts, but simply some brief parts of them, that I will use in my piece, simply as this is what modern day media (post modernism) has become, taking brief ideas from other media texts.
The first video is Meghan Trainor - 'All about that bass' a text in which she inspires women that you don't need to be skinny to be pretty etc. Not the full message that she aims to promote but an idea I am decoding, visually you can tell also that Meghan isn't the most slim women herself, which inspires me to follow the same prospect in terms of character presentation. This is the first idea of mine.
The second is Wiz Khalifa - See you again, where he uses some fantastic imagery, very aesthetic to the viewing eye. I have chosen to follow this convention of the well framed establishing shots to draw in viewers and keep the text aesthetically pleasing. It will be hard to compete with this one as this was written after the death of star Paul Walker, however the fantastic imagery (establishing shots) is something I wish to use, with similar natural lighting as it looks strong and would set my fitting well.
What I can learn by watching all these various videos are, is what appeals to todays audience and how popular some videos are dependant on the song or simply the visuality of the song. And by this I can apply post modern features to my text by picking apart other famous texts and applying parts of them into my piece.
