Searching for an artist

I was given the task of finding a unsigned artist/band. Therefore I began looking at different types of genres of music videos, I looked at house music videos, RnB videos and Indie videos. After looking into each genre thoroughly and researching production elements of each genre, I came to the conclusion that it would be the best option to produce a indie music video as to produce the video it only entails a small expense; which means I would be able to create a good music video for the genre of my choice.

Once I decided on the genre for my music video, I then used the sites 'Unsignedartists.com' and 'Soundcloud.com', as both of these sites are specifically used for artists that have not been signed up yet to display their work with the hope that people will enjoy their music and they may get signed up one day.

After searching through these two sites, I did not come across any bands that I wanted to create a music video for. Therefore I then began to scroll through the social media site 'facebook' and that is where I came across the band 'Kids love lies'; where I listened to the song 'Hex'. I instantly liked the concept of the song and thought I could come up with some good ideas to create a music video for this song. With a fast paced song I knew I'd be able to work with different varieties of camera shots and effects to create a good music video; while also editing the shots to the beat of the song. I also believe the target audience of this band is teenagers; which allowed me to relate to the song as I am in this age range.
