Group: Update - 16-9-13

Checklist - What we are thinking.

LB: As a group we have started to make some progress, we are still undecided on a track, however we have managed to start thinking of different bands and gaining ideas while doing so. On Friday we had a look at the artist  "Of Monsters and men" however the animation and fairytale based ideas that is generally portrayed in their other videos, for us it would not only be very time consuming, but would be hard for us to portay the same stories. e.g. In their video "Little Talks" the story follows cartoon like chararcters in a fairtytale world with dragons and mythical creatures. This would be far too challenging for us to follow through their ideas.

We also had a look at "Imagine Dragons" and there style of videos, as a whole they do not follow a certain theme or meta-narrative. Some of their video are solely performance based, with occasional shots following a narrative of a different person. When others are a completely different and fully narrative based in which the artists rarely feature. One theme we were able to notice was this idea of the underdog and a sense of success at the end of the video. As a group we all thoroughly enjoyed the tracks and possibly have an Idea to use the artist song "Bleeding Out" but have not strongly thought about using it at the moment.
