Narrowing down the briefs

In today's lesson we touched upon the different briefs available for the A2 course. 

After the lesson I went through the briefs and eliminated the ones that didn't stand out or interest me as much as the two that I managed to narrow it down to.

The first brief is:

A promotion package for the release of an album, to include a music promo video, together with two of the following three option:

- A website homepage for the band 

- A cover for it's release on DVD

- A magazine advertisement for the DVD 

For this brief I would create a music video as well as a magazine advertisement and a website homepage for the band. I am very keen to look further into this brief  as I am interested in a wide range of music and and therefore I am constantly involved with the different forms and elements of media the music industry surrounds itself with.

The second brief is:

A short film in its entirety, lasting approximately five minutes, which may be live action or animated or a combination of both, together with two of the following three options:

-A poster for the film

-A radio trailer for the film

-A film magazine review page featuring the film.

I am interested in short films as i like the concept of being able to tell a story or depict a situation in such a short space of time and I like how the combination of different techniques can have such an impact without lasting the standard 2 hours of a feature length film.
