Jordan Brooks A2 Media Coursework

For my group choice, I have decided to go with Connor Ball. I have chosen to go with him because I was in a group with him when doing my AS course when we made a thriller opening sequence. He is hard working and he is also a friend of mine so we can work well together as a team. I also worked with Daniel Lomax in my AS coursework but he has decided to go on his own for this course. I have chosen to go with Connor instead of being on my own because I feel that shared ideas and help from each other will ultimately achieve a better grade along with a better experience in doing the course for the both of us.

With there being such a wide variety of song choices, I feel that a strict narrative may be hard to think of and achieve. Also, I am concerned about this course as I have never done anything like this before, as I have to create a digipak as ...

The task brief for our A2 course is "To plan and create a new music video, supported by a promotional magazine advert and 'digipak' artwork for the release
