Evaluation of potential song- Your light

I also found Your Light by MEGA on sound cloud, MEGA describes herself as an R&B and soul artist however this song is focused mainly around the soul genre. I was originally drawn to this song because of the quality of the recording, her voice sounds strong and loud as it was seemingly reordered in a large space. This means that the lyrics she is singing come across as strong and meaningful. The lyrics that are sung are based around falling in love, at first listen I interpreted the song is have religious connotations due to the repetitive mention of “light”. However, the lyrics are not one dimensional and lend themselves to multiple ideas. For example, I could base the narrative around falling in love win a conventional way or around finding god and a new life.

Another advantage of the song is the beginning, starting with an interesting, diverse, and complex beat which sets the potential of the beginning of the music video on a good start. The beat is slow and therefore I would also be inclined to use the narrative of someone walking. In comparison to Cherry Tree by JACKIE, the narrative of someone walking could be further developed and potentially more successful. For example, if the lyrics are interpreted as finding god and a new life, the walking narrative could represent this discovery. However, if the lyrics are interpreted as falling in love then I could also use the walking narrative as a representation of discovery but for a lover instead of God.

As the song only has one main vocal artist, I would only need one main actor. This would be easier for me as I am working on my own and need to find reliable actors for my production. If I only have one main vocalist, I would be able to only use one actor more suitably.

A disadvantage of this song is that it is fairly slow, this means that it is vulnerable to having an unexciting video due to the slow beat. However, I believe that with the potential narratives
