Artist name research

The name of an artist is a big part of their overall success; if they are called a name which is relevant and current to their target audience then their success is much more likely to occur. In order to come up with a name for our artist, we have to look closely at existing and also past Britpop music artists, particularly Male bands, in order to come up with a good name for our group.

Brother Liam, who had come along to the gig, was taken with the name "Oasis", and he suggested to Noel that it would make a good name for them to set up their own band, which at the time was called The Rain.

Institutional information to use - Digipak Planning

Within a digipak there must be information on both the institution and producers of the CD. From researching and looking through different magazine adverts and dikipaks I have found some of the must important pieces of information to include: -        - Firstly, the name of the record company is one of the most important pieces of information as it informs people who helped to produce the music. -        - Sometimes the names of the band members and the roles that they have in the band are included -        - It should include where the song was produced and created. -        - There should also be a section on the individuals who helped to create the designs and photographers. -        - The key institutional information should include the management of the band.

Editing feedback for our final rough edit

This is due to the fact that it is not in time and can be edited easily to make sure we change it so that it looks more professional. Besides this minor change we were given positive feedback on our music video and that they enjoyed both the introduction and ending where we included  small parts of the live performance.

Kangol Bucket Hats: This particular style of hat became popular during the late 80's 'Madchester' era. They were specifically worn by Artists such as: Elton John, LL Cool J and the Gallagher brothers. Thanks to Oasis and The Stone Roses it stuck around as a Britpop staple. In 2016, the millinery still remains the perfect accessory for any festival fanatic. We can use this style of Fashion within our Music video to recreate one of the biggest fashion statements during the Britpop era. It will also show our knowledge on the fashion of the genre but also the fact that many Artists wear these styles of clothing during their Music videos. Many fishermen used to wear Bucket hats to protect from the rain whilst fishing. Many fans of the Britpop genre started to wear these in Manchester, to protect them from the rain during festivals and concerts. From there on, it has spiraled into a huge fashion statement of that era. Parka Jackets: The Parka jacket was first popularised...
