COMPETITION

Dear Reader,
I am entering the London Music Festival for 2023 which is made for
music video makers and enthusiasts. They value your work and
promote music videos all over the year on their facebook page that
has a rapid amount of new growing followers. They also additionally
give you space on their platform for background information
regarding your music, videos and your regular news. The opening date
was July 1st 2022 and the regular deadline was submitted for January
1st 2023, however I believe I will enter June 1st 2023 as the late
deadline, due to the date I filmed my production. The event takes
place on July 1st 2023, though this festival has some rules that you
must abide by:

➼ Music videos may be any length and from any year.

➼ Participants must submit one or several music videos and
must choose which category they want them to compete in.

of the festival the standard non-exclusive rights that would be
granted to a music video broadcaster, as well as the right to

➼By submitting the music video the participant permits that the
organisers can use the video as well as pictures and names attached to
the music video for advertising and public relations purposes in
connection with marketing the festival.
➼By submitting the material, the applicant hereby agrees to indemnify, hold

FINAL IDEA
Dear Reader,

I plan to present a production about the effects of insecurity, based within

a music video. Which takes the story of a girl who feels insecure within her
group of friends and decides to shut herself out from the world. This
slowly leads on to her looking at herself in the mirror, feeling incomplete
and unworthy of herself, like she is some outcast.

From these effects leads on to worse mental health, such as panic attacks
and anorexia/depression/anxiety etc. I want to show that with these types
of people, they avoid social life as they cannot be judged from locking
themselves up. The message I want to get across is that the mirror and
social media is really our worst enemy in day to day life. Leading on from
this I want to produce my story to show that having reassurance by your
side can really impact the way you feel, and that at first you may believe
no one cares but the reality really is someone in your life will and can take
note of how you act, hopefully supporting you to know you are not alone.

Overall, I want my audience to mainly feel like having these thoughts and
emotions they can know that they are not alone, and that everyone
suffers in silence one way or the other, which might not be in terms of
weight, but something more mental such as family life, personality, etc.
With this, it will hopefully create a passionate meaning and let my
audience relate to my music video to the best of their ability.
