A promotion package for the release of an album, to include a music promo video,

together with:

The production element will be completed as part of a group (we recommend three or four

individually so that you may be assessed on your own contribution.

This website has been created to show our A2 media group's music video, which was based on "Adele - Rumour Has It".  We named our band "Chloe & The Dynamites" as Chloe is the artist, the main singer. The information on this website guides you through the history of the video and why we chose to use Adele and her song Rumour Has It, why we thought this would be an acceptable and unique music video. It also shows you where we started and how we got our first ideas and how we grew on them.
