This video is relevant to our project, as it sticks to the conventions that we wish to comply to. Watching the video has given me a few ideas on what sort of things we could include in our project, such as; Coreographed dance, slow motion, a mixture of colour and monochrome.

We have encountered some set backs with our project. After having reviewed our footage, we have noticed it contains potentially sexual content, which would make it un-airable, also there is too much obvious alcohol consumption. We must now re think our footage, possibly get a choreographed dance.

This is a screen shot of an email i recieved giving me permission to use the attached music file. It reads :

Ofcom

While planning our video, we researched what rules we would have to abide by if we were to air our video, and discovered that there are alot rules by a organisation called ofcom, who basically control what airs, where and when. Our sample video contains alcohol, so we would have to check carefully to see if it complies to all regulations. Also we would look into whether the alcohol companies who's product features in our video would sponsor.

Finding copyright free music

We struggled at first to find copyright free music but we found a site called Banditorecords. co.uk which had stlyes of music which suited our needs, it was a 'contact site' where instead of downloading the song you have to contact the site owner. Here is the process of how we found the email address.
