AUDIENCE AND SOCIAL MEDIAS As a group we would like to appeal to young girls, mainly teens, as we feel that our image and music fits this category, but we hope to appeal to a range of people. Fans of Lana Del Rey and Haim would also enjoy our music.

We talked about an new music video, how we were discovered, and an in sight as to what we are like as a band. Emma had an interview with MTV, Drea had an interview with NME and Beth had an interview with the BBC live lounge.
IN THE STUDIO

Nina and Hazel went in Abbey Road recording studio to record the audio for the music video. Hazel performs the main vocals and Nina did some backing vocals to add if needed. This clip shows some behind the scenes footage of what went down when they arrived.
MUSIC VIDEO Our new single ‘Black Beauty’ is currently in the making of its music video. The concept involves the band enjoying a day out whilst having dramatic, quick shot flash backs of each member floating in water. Although the concept seems simple, we aim to make it dramatic and exciting through the editing process. We want the video to change from an old, film reel, grainy styled shots, to clear, slow motion shots of underwater scenes.
STORY BOARD

This is our story board that we will use when we film. We went through the song and wrote down the lyrics and the time they are said. We drew out what would happen in each scene
