As I decided to take this project up on my own, and work without a group, I will take on every role involved in the production of my Music Video. This will entail me being a director, writer, camera person, editor and researcher, thus making me an 'Auteur'.
The only other role I needed to fill therefore was an actor. As I mentioned in my previous post, regarding the first music video I made (King of Anything), a friend of mine who studies at Birmingham Ormiston Academy volunteered to take up the role. His role will require him to play the character in the narrative sequences as well as the performance ones as they are meant to be the same person.
Auteurism:
An Auteur is someone who oversees so much of the production of a media product, they become the Author. Auteurism started in France during the late 1940s as one of many cinematic theories created by Andre Bazin and Alexander Astruc, later being called 'Auteur Theory' by american film critic Andrew Sarris.
