Every Tuesday we meet up to work through the backing track, starting off with the instrumental then the vocals. In order to record and produce the song we are using a programme called Cubase on the MacBook Pro, which is new for me as I have never used this software so I am able to learn how it works and how to create a song.
We filmed our recording session, in order to add sections of it to the music video and also for our 'Behind the Scenes' video. We thought integrating short video clips from our recording sessions into our music video would be effective as it would show the process of how the song was created and emphasise the emotion and hard work put into the song. This would also help as Esther is a new upcoming artist and having this in her video gives her audience an insight into how she works and what she goes through when recording a song. The inspiration for this came while researching new artists on YouTube with a similar genre to Esther's music and how they put together their music videos. An example of this would be videos by new artist Hobbie Stuart, who is also a personal favourite of mine. Quite a few of his music videos consist of a storyline within the video as well as him in his studio recording his song, which allows you to contrast the role of the artist from different perspectives; as an actor in the storyline and the artist sharing his emotions through singing his song.
Here is a short clip of our recording sessions:
