RESEARCH CHOSEN BAND/ARTISTS PREVIOUS POP PROMOS

Journey- faithfully

This video starts off with the band on a coach travelling to one of their tours/ concerts, we see the coach driving on the road from different camera angles and then we see the band sleeping on a couch inside the coach. Then as the video progresses we see the band on stage performing the song to thousands of people, it also cuts to some scenes of the band messing about backstage in between their performance. I think this video is pretty simple and probably would have been relatively cheap to produce, I would say it is performance based video.



Journey- separate ways

This video is set in one place throughout the promo, the location is outside a garage. It starts off with the band pretending to play their instruments however there is nothing in there hands, then the instruments just appear in their hand, there is a also a young attractive women who walks past the band I believe that this is to apply a sexual gaze men. There are various different shots of the band and the women, there is one shot in particular which I liked it was a shot of the 4 band members all in a line but one was each one was a bit further back than the other it was a bizarre shot but also very interesting. This video is also performance based.




Journey- anyway you want it

The video starts off with a jukebox with all journey songs on it and you see a finger select the song which they are singing and that’s when the song starts I think this is very appealing way to start off the video. Afterwards the rest of the video just involved the band performing on the stage. So it’s another simple and probably cheap video for journey and again it is performance based.
