Post 4 - Song Annotation
Flying, climbing,
This is what I feel when I'm reverse skydiving,
Neptune, shining,
Frying all the elements as they're combining,
Rewind, timing,
This be the contract for sky I'll be signing,
No concern for wining or dining,
Wind so blue that it might be blinding,
All that I know is I won't be minding
You don't have to jump to fly with me
You don't have to jump to fly with me
You don't have to jump to fly with me
You don't have to jump to fly with me
Flying, climbing,
Giving me a smile, that's the inverse of crying
Upwards, mining
My dress seems like a ruby and the stars be aligning
Sky that's shining
Angles that I'm turning on continue refining
No concern for eyes that are prying
Spell my name with lighting and keep rewinding
All that I know is I won't be minding
You don't have to jump to fly with me
You don't have to jump to fly with me
You don't have to jump to fly with me
You don't have to jump to fly with me
Flying, climbing,

Wind so blue that it might be blinding,
All that I know is I won't be minding
You don't have to jump to fly with me
You don't have to jump to fly with me
You don't have to jump to fly with me
You don't have to jump to fly with me

I believe this song 'Reverse Sky-diving' in my opinion is about a girl either going through her daily routine that she does every single day, or that she is on drugs or that this could possibly be an imagination or a dream that she is having. What suggests this is the lyric 'frying all the elements as they're combining'. This lyric/line could suggest the first opinion of the song about a girl doing her daily work every single day and that she cant wait till the night. The word that suggests this is 'frying' as it sounds like she wants to merge and cook together quickly all the bad and depressing things in the day and wait for the night to come. A lyric that finishes that story of is 'all that i know is i wont be minding' as this line says that she doesnt mind whatever she does in the day doesnt matter, as long as she's got the night so she doesnt mind all the daily things she has to do. However, what could suggest my other opinion is the dream/imagination/drugs is that whole lyric title 'reverse sky-diving' as no one can reverse sky dive, as it's impossible. So it could make the listeners realise that she is dreaming this or her imagination is playing with her mind. What could indicate that she is on drugs is the lyric 'wind so blue that it might be blinding' as sometimes when your on drugs they can make you hallucinate and see different objects and colours, so the bright colours from the drugs is blinding her. This song has so many different interpretations that could all be created in this music video.

Post 3 - Song Details
Hot Natured ft Anabel Englund - Reverse Skydiving (Shadow Chid Remix)
Our song choice for our House music video is the song Reverse Skydiving (shadow child remix) by Hot Natured featuring Anabel Englund. We chose this song for our chosen music video genre because it has a great house music beat that starts off the song that's throughout. After then it additionally has a breakdown at 1:34 in the music that brings a climax to the song. Also, it effectively has the singer Anabel Englund singing through out from 0:40 with meaningful lyrics. This has been edited throughout though as there is some echoes in her voice at the beginning and throughout, and it sounds like some parts have been repeated and edited. The song is about about a romance she is having with someone and how she feels about that guy when she's with him. This uses mesmerising connatations with sexual references towards the guy. However, from when i heard the song and saw the lyrics, the story that she is telling is like a memory, imagination or a story from being on drugs especially with the way she is singing the song and the type of lyrics. The genre of this music video especially for the remix of the song comes under the genre house music. This is because of the type of lyrics she is singing, the beat and drop of beat to make the climax in the song because it sounds like the song would be in a club which is very conventional of house music and their music videos.
Post 2 - Roles in Music Video
This gif explains to everyone the different roles everyone has in the group and what they are going to be contributing towards the group to make the music video a success. So as you can see Jacob is going to be our director and in charge of lighting and sound as we all agreed he would best to help make this music video and would give the best decisions for the music video, especially for all the ideas he has thought of so far for specifically house music. George is going to be doing a joint role of camera shots, which therefore indicates that him and Jacob can both contribute different shot ideas which will make the music video stand out and effective. We thought that Rae should be the performer for this music because she would suit this role for this singer very well as she knows the genre well and help think of different ideas for what she could do in the music video. She is also joint doing mise en scene with me, so this is where we can put in ideas about how the way the performer looks, where it should be set and the character should be doing etc. I believe all the roles given are very good and suit every person in our group, and everyone will do really well in thinking of different ideas for their section in our house music video.

Audience Reseacrh
From the results from our questionnaires, you can see that their is a mixture of different points of view what type of music different people like. Additionally, you can see the most amount of people that we gave the questionnaire to was between 16-26, and unknowingly all questionnaires were to more males than females. Most people when asking the questions to liked house music, which is helpful for our survey as we are focusing on House music, however more of the older people didnt know much of house music. Furthermore, from the last pie chart you can see that there was a whole mixture of ways that people have heard of house music, there wasnt just one particular way.
