Idea Influences

Here is a number of the groups favorite videos and also some videos which have helped to influence our final ideas.


Kieran's Favourite Videos


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQHPYelqr0E&ob=av3e - Weezer = Pork And Beans


This is a good video as it in full of aspects to do with intertextuality. This video became an influence to us as we developed their ideas about creating a story based on parody and intertextuality but unlike them we are intending to involve people trying to be like video game characters instead of internet viral sensations.

This is a very obscure and witty video which is why it is one of Kieran's favorites. It includes aspects of humour and randomness which we hope to portray in our video without it becoming too slapstick and silly.


Jonhn's Favourite Videos

James' Fave Videos

Jay: I love the work of Michel Gondry, hes a genius and has done some fantastic videos that melt the brain. A few of my fave videos are his, personally 'Protection' the video he directed for the band Massive Attack, is one of my favourite videos of all time.

Another video I like even though its rather grainy and poor in terms of editing however, is the Libertines 'Can't Stand Me Now', because its one of my fave songs ever.
