My name is David Revell, and i am now studying the next year of my Media Studies course (A level) at Saffron Walden County High School. For my A2 Advanced Portfolio of constructing a music video me and my group have decided to use the song 'Friday Nights' by the band 'Pistola Kicks'.
Initial impressions of the song have been that it is of rock/punk/indie style and culture. From carefully listening to the lyrics it gave us the impression of a working man dreading the week ahead. This triggered impressions of depression and the inevitability that life goes on.
After listening to the song multiple times, it got us thinking of similar style songs and videos, such as 'The Arctic Monkeys' music video for 'When the sun goes down'. The video had a gritty feel to it, shot in washed-out colour. The washed-out colour and grayscale of the music video, i think, would suit our songs aesthetics and subject matter.
