What music channel to use?

To distinguish which music channel our video will be featured on I googled sky music channels which gave me a list of their channels.

The music channels which we thought would be appropriate were NME, Q and MTV music. All channels include Indie and Alternative rock songs on their channel which our band is classed under.

This is the logo for NME TV which we would place in the corner of our music video the let audiences know what music station they were watching and where they might find more information about the band.

The NME website has information about Bloc party showing that is would be appropriate to use this music channel for our video.




However when we tried to put this logo onto our music video the white background really stood out and did not look realistic. We tried to cut this out in photo shop however it left the letter distorted.

We looked at Q's music channel but it was quite confusing at to what the music channel was called, as when researching the box was coming up which was mainly used for pop music. Additionally the website did not have Bloc Party under their list of music artists.

We then looked at MTV music where we found a simple logo that looked realistic on our music video.


Here shows that MTV recognise Bloc Party and have various videos and information about the banding making this channel appropriate for showing our music video.

This is a screen grab from our music video including the MTV logo which is consistent throughout the whole video. This means that audiences are aware of what music channel they are watching and they can also visit the website for more information.
