I am a 20-year old student from Hertfordshire. I am currently studying Magazine Journalism and feature writing at Southampton Solent University where I hope to continue my passion for journalism as a career. I enjoy writing about subjects that interest me and I like to voice my opinion. I will be showcasing my interests in the fields of fashion, journalism and general topics that spring to mind. Practice makes perfect.

'Hot and Cold' was one of the songs we considered working on. I really liked this video because the costumes in it were fun and colourful, giving me plenty of ideas for my video. I was inspired by the clothing as it refelcts a suprising and unexpected look to the video, for example, when she rips off her wedding dress and is wearing a funky and tight shorter dress. The video is very busy, and there are lots of things going on at the same time. I like this because there is a lot to take in, keeping the audience's eyes occupied at all times. In this particular video there is more choreographed dancing then her other videos, this i think is nice to have and adds to the style of song, this time being very upbeat and fast. I like the way they have considered the main aspects of making a music video, locationm character and mise en scene, adding an extra something to the video and enhancing the quality. The theme is pop, and i think that Katy Perry's make up definately reflects this, this i believe is an important detail added, giving the video that much more colour and attracting younger girls also to the pretty make up! I think it's important to reflect the particular song as much as you can, and it is these ideas that I will benefit from when organising my music video and will think about including.
