i am going to use these album covers to give me some ideas for my album cover.

experimenting with wordle (potential cover or background for album cover or poster)

update on my music video

i am nearly finished with my spider and fly costumes which i have hand made myself , OK with abit of help from my mum . all i have to do tonight is turn a helmet into the head of my spider. however the helmet is full faced and blocks the mouth of my Spider actor . in order to solve this problem i will have to cut the bottom of the helmet off so you can see the spiders mouth which is an important aspect in a music video.

As for the Mese-en-scene the frames that i have painted hasn't turned out as good as i had hoped, this is due to the fact that the paint had bled into the cloth i was painting on there for making the overall frame harder to see. In order to use these but not so much as to ruin my music video i thought i could film some shots with a plain black background and a spot light on my actor in shot. This way i am still relating to other music videos in this genre such Bus ta Rhymes Break Your Neck . Also in relation to this the spot lights cold be different colours with each character e.g The Spider = purple lens on spot light Fly = pink lens. I plan to have the same shots though as to not stray from my story board.

Desired costumes

My costumes i am making myself like the Mise-en-scene , i am making the spiders costume out of purple cloth and the insides of a pillow to make the different sections of body of the spider. I also using purple cloth and insides of a pillow to make the arms which are all connected by string so when the actor moves his arms the other arms imitate. i want to use a helmet for the head which i will paper mache and paint purple with red eyes to show a evil streak in this character.

For my Fly costume i will use the same sort of stretchy material and insides of a pillow to create the body and legs of the fly but the fabric will be pink the chosen colour for a female fly on my poll that i put on my blog. i then plan to stick two sieves one on each side of a head band to act as the Flies eyes with two springs with pink fluffy balls on the end to act as antena.

Cast

at this present time :

Fly (Female) = Denni Mitchell, a blond ,small ,attractive young woman which will carry the sexual appeal for the male audience. she is also outgoing wich i think will benefit my video well as she will not get camera shy.

Spider(male) = Jacob smart, a brown haired attractive young man with a smile which is both cheaky and enticing so that it will appeal to the audience and will also sell my character to my audience he is also outgoing and isnt camera shy.

Location

My location for my music video of the song ' The Spider And The Fly ' is in the drama department of Mangotsfield Secondary School . this is so that i can use the lights and other special effects to give it a sureal effect commonly found in busta rhymes videos.(an artist that i have baised my idea on ) as for the actual mise-en-scene i have realised that the same location may sound abit bnoring . However my plan is to use bed sheats with different locations and scenes on them such as the Spiders parlor and his ' winding stairs' in a cartoon style simular to the technique used in Busta rhymes 'Gimme Some More'. however This will be time consuming and so i will have to make these scenes in my own time . i will upload pictures of the drama studio and the scenes i will have to make shortly.

Lyrical Evaluation

the lyrics to my chosen song 'The Spider and The Fly' tells the story of a spider trying to entice a fly into its layer so that it can eat the fly . however the Fly is too smart for the Spider and eventualy leaves the spider crying at the end of the version i have . However due to the genre of this version of this old nursary rhyme is rap which makes the hole song sound like a sexual refrence to a man trying to get a woman into bed. Refrences to the spiders bed are made in the lyrics to from the spider to the fly. This is the spin off that i am trying to create in my music video . with the use of fast editing and sexual refrences i think i could pull it off. the structure of the song however is typical of a traditional song because it doesnt have a corus however it does have a pattern to it where the spider speaks trying to entice the fly then the fly replies with a rejection to the spider . This interesting form of banter keeps the audience entertained because they want to know if the spider will succeed in his task.

lyrics for The Spider And The Fly

Spider:will you walk into my parlor said the spider to the fly, tis the prettiest little parlor that ever you did spy.

the way up into my parlor is up a winding stair, and i have many curious thing to show when you are there
