Search for band



I firstly begun to search for a un signed by using a website called ' unsigned mp3' of which had many artists of many different genres who are currently unsigned. My main search mainly consisted off r&b unsigned artists, I then managed to find one of which I really liked and along with this website it gave us as the audience a chance to email each artist. This was the email which I sent .

Hi,

My name is Joanna and I am currently studying for a media A level in London- I really like your music and am emailing to ask to use your track as part of my course in which I will need to make a music video. I attend Queen Elizabeth's Girls' school in Barnet and cover the OCR specification (if you wanted to check). Your music would only be used for educational purposes and not shared at all. I would really appreciate if you could give me permission to use your track 'Just When' and help me complete the course using a song I love. Please let me know either way as soon as you can and good luck in your career.

Thank you for your time

Joanna


However I was never given a reply back, in regards to this I then noticed that it may be difficult to email an unsigned artist with a high request of a quick response. So I decided to think about if I knew any family or friends who had a track which had been recorded and of course who where currently unsigned. I then remembered to very close friends of mine who had created a Gospel/r&b rap song and decided to take it upon myself to contact them. Their response was very quick and they gave me the permission to use their song. 
Although I found a song which was so close to home and also a track I very much like, there are a few things of which I found difficult about my overall search. These where things such as deciding which genre I would have like to work around. I found this an obstacle because as well as trying to find a good song to use I also had to think about what resources I had available to use for the video, who id have in the video and also the location and settings of the video. These where always the main focus around each
