At first, we as a group were not sure which song we were going to use. We narrowed it down to a particular genre of music which was electronic. This was because we all had an interest in this genre which made it more comfortable for us to work with. We thought possibly a slow song has more meaning to the lyrics, therefore easier to interpret ideas for a music video.
In our group we all had iPods which gave us immediate access to thousands of songs, this made it easier for us to develop our ideas. After we had listened to various songs, we narrowed it down to two songs within our genre. The first was Chase & Status - Embrace, and the second was Magnetic Man ft John Legend - Getting Nowhere. After a group discussion, we ended up going with the second choice, Magnetic Man ft John Legend - Getting Nowhere.
The song itself is quite slow, but has a continuous beat throughout. We have a rough idea on what we plan to do for the beginning of the song and rough ideas for the rest of the song. We plan to almost tell a story within the video to express the lyrics.
