Chosen song




For my A level video i have chosen to do the song "cannonball" by Damien rice, i chose this song when listening to a friend playing it a at a small concert, i decided to look into the music video and the video is made up of random shots of clips from TV and collections of videos  none of which contained and lip syncing shots of the band or followed and concept or narrative. this was perfect for me as i could create any type of video for the song and it wouldn't be the same as the original video.As the artist was only a small time solo record est he didn't have a budget for a director to create the video, hence all of the random clips, he instead spent all of his money into production of his album and distributing it around the world. In Ireland the single was issued as a CD maxi single in may 2002 on the artists own label "Damion Rice music". it contained a remixed version of the track by Paul p dub and mark spike stent, plus a demo, a live track and an instrumental, In Britannia the single was released in October 2003 by the 14th floor records on a standard CD and enhanced CD which included a B-side track moody Monday  the music video for cannonball was packaged in a gate-fold card sleeve with a poster, the second CD contained live versions of the hit song, Amie and the blowers daughter recorded live at the union chapel there was also a limited edition one-track inch single pressed.
