Re:Could this be the new model ? - 2008/07/25 08:49
One of the reasons why I pointed out the links to Straight 8 www.straight8.net and www.onsuper8.org is the method they use in filming. All editing is in camera, no post production is used and they turn out some really creative stuff. The big problem with music at the moment is a lack of creativity. It is too business driven, too corporate, too dull. We are following rules made by people who broke existing rules and are too afraid to break the mould.
The Dragon's Den band broke the mould, got themselve a lot of cash and a lot of attention and a record deal (perhaps) that they would not have got before appearing on the show.
It is possible Mart, just pull in a struggling student/artist/film director who dreams of being in Spielberg's next blockbuster. Introduce them to your band and if they love them, they can make something artistic and interesting that will work online especially.
We can't all be watching dancing cats or other fluffy animals and most "behind the scenes" look at artists are just plain boring now.
My gut tells me that two things will happen in the near future:
A new artist will be launched by the Mail On Sunday, or a rival, with the "damned" covermount.
A new or existing act will launch its new album using a movie. It doesn't have to be expensive looking and can borrow from Dogme or Straight 8. I also believe that there are people on this board who are thinking the same thing. It is the future trend. Remember who said it first, when it happens. Lol.
