A2 Music Video - Heathens, twentyonepilots

This is the link for our A2 Music Video

This is mine and Gwion's A2 Media final product. We chose to do a music video for the twentyønepilots song - Heathens. This was the second idea we had after unsuccessfully planning a horror/thriller short film. We felt this idea suited us better and we test us more creatively but also be easier for us to execute. We had a good plan and idea in place for this music video.

Ancillary Texts - DVD COVER

This is my DVD cover for my A2 music video - Heathens. I chose this dark style theme because I felt it matched the song, the lyrics and the music video really well.

Ancillary texts - Website

This is the link to the website I have created to promote my band, Lloyd & Gwion. I decided to do the homepage of the website because I feel that this is what will attract people to remain on the website and to check out some of the music that is being produced.

I answered this question in the form of a Prezzi presentation.
