I have created this band frankenstein to work out how we are going to represent our band in the music video. I have chosen to have the band represented as people who do not take themselves too seriously as people, able to poke fun at themselves but serious as musicians.
Examples of bands like this are Green Day, Steel Panther and Blink 182 who despite often making lighthearted or comedic music put a great deal of work into making their music mean something to them and in the case of Steel Panther using a large amount of musical skill. This is why I have given my Frankenstein a suit to wear, to represent them as serious musicians but holding a clown flag as they are not serious as people.
The Frankenstein wears cowboy boots as their music has a western undertone to it which I will carry through their webpage as well. A theme of westerns is a lack of law and authority which I have also conveyed with the bands megaphone, they have little respect to authority and are unafraid of it.
I will have to look back at this Frankenstein when it comes to representing our band. As this will be useful to us in the future.
