PRODUCTION DEVELOPMENT: Changing band name
CHANGING THE BAND NAME:
In terms of developing my band, I have decided to change my band name.
I originally took inspiration from the 1975 in my naming of my band and taking certain ideologies to reflect in my own brand. I have decided to still use a numerical band name to reflect the intertextuality of the 1975, but referencing 1983.
The new band name, of 1983, reflects a widened fun-loving audience. I have placed emphasis on a bold mise-en-scene to adhere to the fun loving mass market audience and in terms of reflecting a 'modern unique artist', as presented in the remit of Sony Music, I have presented ideologies that reflect a modern society and modern societal issues like the issues around generalisations of gender.
To increase inclusivity with a mass market audience, the miseducating-en-scene presented by my artist not only reflects the aesthetic of my young target audience but also includes a level of nostalgia for a slightly older audience through 80s costume and a formal representation of a jazz trumpet player.

WEBSITE PRODUCTION: SINGER VIDEO INTERVIEW
Audio Visual Content 2:
I have used the 30 second audio visual content to be an interview with the main singer of the band I have created.
This is where Reuben introduces himself and the band and incorporates the ideology of the music video and introduces the important narrative the video is portraying.
This is also featured on the website (product 2) as well as a second written interview with the band.

PRODUCTION: Cross-media Convergence
Connecting the video to the website and cross-media convergence:
Throughout the website I have presented a connection between my main video (product 1) and the website (product 2).
Here I have created a trailer for the video that pops up in a Lightbox when you enter the site. This immediately foregrounds the video and connects the two products together.

After entering the site, the first thing the audiences are faced with is the music video attached with the title 'latest exclusive'. This presents the video straight away to the audiences and immediately advertises both the video and the website.
The instagram feed presents behind the scenes photos that foreground the music video. The rest of the posts present advertisement towards the bands new 'single' (product 1).
Throughout the website, #selfobssessed is a link and trend that has been created to go with the the music video. It is quoted in the music video and used in the website for audience participation.
WEBSITE PRODUCTION: Website Intertextuality
WEBSITE INTERTEXTUALITY:
Within my website, I have made intertextual links to the original band I am using for inspiration. I have quoted the 1975 lyrics as headings to my pages on the website that the audience would recognise, similar to that intertextuality within the music video.
