Track Permission Letter

Below is an email for our group requesting permission to use the song 'Someday' - Two Door Cinema Club. We have to do this so that the record label do not think we are breaching any copyright claims, or claiming ownership of the song.

Talent Release Forms

Below are talent release forms in which our group have gained permission for the following people to be filmed for our music video. By completing this form, they have agreed to take part in the shooting of our video, and have given consent that their performance in the video will be seen online, and at a Media showcase held at school.

The three people below will act as the band in our music video, so they will be seen in the performance shots.

Location Permission Letters

Permission for Nonsuch Park:

Permission for Morden Park:

Permission to use the loft:

These are screen-shots of either emails or applications we completed in order to request permission to shoot our music video in our desired locations. Without this permission, we would not be able to shoot, therefore by asking for permission before-hand, it makes us organised for our shooting schedule.

Photo-Shoot Plan


A photo-shoot plan enables us to set aside specific dates and times for when our group can take photographs which are needed for the advertisement and the digipak associated with our music video. We have planned the costumes, props, and locations needed - with reminders to ourselves that equipment and locations need to be booked.

Advert Design

This is my first attempt at the advert promoting the CD of our artist. I have made sure that the conventions of a CD advertisement are seen, such as: the record label logo/websites, where the album is available to buy from, images of the band and album, a release date, and bold font displaying both the name of the band, and the album.

However, when we do our final advert we will be using Photoshop. As a result of this, we can ensure that the advert is both creative and abstract, while any photographs we use of the band have to include to the muted colours that are associated with the genre. I believe that for our photograph of the band, their instruments should be included because with the indie-rock genre, the instruments are the dominant focus of the music, and this should be brought to the audiences attention.
