Music Video - for Blue Skies All The Way The theme of the music video is taken from the song which is nostalgia, a happy memory of the past and childhood, over coming loss and sadness, a mixture of happy and sad emotion. How the Music video came to be: I Originally wanted funding for studio time in a recording studio. I gave a presentation to funders (Paul Trigg - Video Vault TIC) who could not offer me studio time but could offer resources to make a music video in particular the use of a Blue screen, who was I to turn it down. I worked with a great lady called Scarlet Scardanelli who did the Camera, Lighting, and Co Editing and contributed to some of the concepts. Using some of my knowledge from my degree (which I graduated from some time ago) in Literature, Art History and Culture where I studied Film and Media as part of my course. I surprisingly managed to remember how to create the story board, music video concept, Co Direct, Co Edit and organise wardrobe,hair,Makeup and performance, as well as producer role , my wonderful Mum also helped co produce the video as well as playing general assistant role in doing crucial stuff like spinning the swivel chair I sat on during the bluescreen chorus bits. Having funding for the music video enabled me to gain studio time At Birmingham Conservatoire (Dr Simon Hall) through final year degree sound engineering students, where I Co-produced the song with sound engineer and Mixer Philip Dobson. The song was written and arranged by myself which I performed at the studios of the Birmingham Conservatoire. What I wanted to achieve: I wanted the video to do and say a number of things: I wanted the video to represent me and my skills as an artist in a positive way.I wanted the theme to be clear, I wanted the story and images to be consistent, clear and stylistic. I wanted the video to highlight the song and lyrics. I wanted the video to be compelling to watch, I wanted to give an arty feel, I wanted to experiment wit
