Creating my artist's identity

Jackie Boyz
The Jackie Boyz  are currently signed to two record labels, their names are Apartment 4 Publishing and Mall B Publishing, both affiliated with ASCAP, as well as their production company Jackie Boyz Entertainment, LLC.

Jackie Boyz is a boy band consisting of two brothers, who are both singer/songwriters, they are group from Los Angles. Looking back at their motivation to sing and record songs comes from their mother who sadly has passed away, they say they express their love for their mother through the music they produce and sing.  They started writing and producing their own music at the age of 14 and 16, using the teachings of their mother, who taught them how to sing professionally they began to sing at small gigs like birthday party's and at church. Unfortunately their mother sadly passed away leaving them with a talent that people would kill for. So today they continued making music but using there mothers inspiration to carry on doing it.

Clothing I would like to see them wear:

The clothes I am going to choose would be something that is not unique but something that would set a trend, so the main aim of the clothes I am going to choose would be simple but elegant.



The reason I chose the blazer is because currently blazers are in trend and this is something that people would look up to. I am going to use this V neck jumper to put under the blazer as I think it would look very trendy. This is the shirt I would like the band to wear under the jumper as I went with the grey theme I figured that the white would work really well. These are the jeans I am going to use with my blazer and shirt trend; I think this would go very well with my jeans and suit to their target audience. The trainers I would use to go with my outfit would be these grey and white blazers as it would go with the grey and white theme and also look very good.

I

 chose a white jumper as I think it would look very trendy and something that there target audience would expect them to wear. With this trend I think my artists would look unique, especially with the purple and white theme, again looking at the target audience that the artist want to reach out too, I think the clothes I chose would appeal to them very well. I also involved the purple as I thought it would be something different, and it would also stick out against the white jumper. I also made sure that the accessories I had chosen to go with the clothes where purple as I think with today's fashion trend this would work really well and the groups fan base would pick up on this.

 When thinking about the typography I would choose in the artist logo, I would go for something that looks very slick, a logo that requires not much attention but something that sticks into someone’s head so they can remember it. I am going to show you some samples of what I want my logo to look similar too.
As you can see looking at all of these logo, they have things that are similar to each other, the thing I wanted to find was something that wasn’t to detailed but appealed to my target audience. I also looked at colours that where vibrant and would represent the bands identity. We can see this again if we look at other logos such as the Imagine Dragons logo, PSY, beats by Dr.Dre and the Avicii logos.

 

 

Whilst sticking to the hip hop stereotypes you would expect to see things like, cars and women in my video. The reason for this is because when looking at my chosen song’s lyrics they mention these things. And from my research I think adding these on would illustrate the video and give a sense of narration to it. The first thing I would have is cars, as there are 2 brothers I would have 4 just for the sakes of showing off and telling the public that they have money. Other things I would have would be the clothes they wear, this would mean that the clothing would be baggy and loads of jewellery.

 

I would also add women to the video as this would generate eye candy and gain male viewers.

The next thing I would look at is the colours I would use to promote my artists, this would consist of colours such as lilac and purple, the reason for this is because I think they look very good and trendy but can also go with most formal colours. Other colours I would choose would be light grey, black and white, the reason for this is because I think they would all work well with the purple and would appeal to the target audience.

 

After listening to the song, a lot of things came to mind. Some of these things where just the general stereotypes, so things like cars, women and money.  More things is people being topless due to him actually saying it over and over again. I also pictured someone who has lots money and is well dressed with expensive clothing. The location I would say would be on a sunny highway in Los Angles.

The person I would want to be in the music video is someone who looks similar to tinny temper because I think the clothing and the genre is something that would fit him perfectly.
