1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

There was a range of different areas that we needed to keep in mind when we were creating our music promo. For example one area we needed to cover was what the actors were going to wear to be able to portray that ‘childhood’ image. Also, we had to bare in mind what the performer was going to wear. For the performer, we looked at different acoustic genre artists to help inspire us.  My group and I always based our ideas around Ed Sheeran first, mainly because we all like him. The imaged displayed on the right shows a good idea on what we wanted our performer to wear. Being casual looking was what most acoustic genre artists looked like. So jeans (or chinos) a shirt (maybe checkered) and a laid back approach were what we need for our performer.

For the actors, we preferred if they dressed much more child like then they do now a days (for example hair tied back in pig tails etc). These images below display how we wanted our actors to look like to be able to show the audience the idea we had in our head and portray across the child like expressions.
