reply to nina's question
its basically the same. i wrote a plot description in the press release which i told people to look at - i dont no if anyone has though? for the essay i just wrote like two sentences, but for the press release i wrote the following...
The story i made up was:
"Born and raised in the Venezuelan city of Maracaribo, new star to hit the spotlight, ‘someone’ plays Golnessa, a girl who rises from a life of unattainable ambitions and distant dreams, to the world of stardom, glamour and fame. As dancers, Golnessa and her friends form the Gina Girls, and perform nightly at their local bar Mercado. After being spotted by British Producer Marcus (Williams) the girls are dramatically whirled into planet ‘celeb’ and find themselves dancing in full view of the world, performing at huge venues and attending a-list soirees. But does the rollercoaster of fame prove too much for Golnessa, and do the melodious sounds of South America seem far sweeter than the loud, harsh and claustrophobic bubble of London?"
and while we're at it, here's the rest of the press release, so people please please go onto the m drive and change it and make it better...
‘Mercado, the soundtrack from the original motion picture’ is an eclectic collection of sound. Intertwining Latin-infused tracks with new, gritty, London-based bands, the music makes ‘Mercado’ the spectacular film it has become. Dance is a major motif in the film, and the soundtrack totally reflects this...headlined by Papi Cazo’s ‘Takin’ it Over’, the album uses manic beats, riotous trumpets, and flamboyant melodies, to inspire listeners to get up on their feet and salsa like Golnessa.
"In collaboration with the film, ‘someone’ will be making special guest appearances on MTV’s ‘TRL’, BBC’s ‘Friday Night with Jonathon Ross’, and Channel 4’s Saturday morning show ‘T4’, performing the film’s most spectacular dance routine, to the headlining single ‘Takin’ it Over’. Golnessa and the Gina Girls are also scheduled to tour next March with a multitude of artists from the soundtrack to truly show the world their stuff, and a dance along DVD to the film will be available to buy from December 10th, so those at home can learn the real dance moves from the experts.
Mercado is to be premiered on the 1st of December, and will be let loose to the public on the 5th. This is to be followed closely by the sublime soundtrack on the 10th of December. Find out more about the film online at www.mercado.com, and the soundtrack will be downloadable there from the 15th of December onwards."
i hope all your essays are going well!

THE MOVIE
hai girls -
I realised we hadn't actually thought about what the film was about, and at which point in the film the music video would be focusing on. We have discussed vaguly that it is about Golnessa's 'rise to fame' but (unless I wasn't in the room while we were talking about it) we haven't really taken it any further.
It's not THAT essential but I want to put it in my essay. So here's what I've written:
Our music video would therefore consist entirely of shots taken from the Motion Picture ‘Mercado’, focusing heavily on the main character within the film, Golnessa. This gives our project an original twist on the brief. His song ‘Takin’ It Over’ is the audio hook of the film: a story about a young, talented and ambitious dancer (Golnessa) who rose to fame through her weekly appearances at Mercado, her local bar and cantina, and then went on to tour around the world. Our three-minute music video would focus on Golnessa’s success as she returns to her hometown, along with her newly formed international entourage of five female dancers, enjoying her popularity and fame. It would show her getting ready to go out with her friends, travelling to Mercado and partying within Mercado.
Is that okay? Does that fit with what the rest of you were thinkin?
Reply back with comments here & I'll check again later
OR if Ms B's reading, do you think that this needs to go in our essays? Ours differs slightly from the conventional structure because of it being from a film soundtrack doesn't it..?
