Song Choice 1-Stryderman-Tinchy Stryder
Lyrics:
The girlfriend taker,
The boyfriends hate me,
All i gotta do is drop a double girl one liner,
And if not minor the necklace will blind her,
Them other dudes cant do it like me,
Prada boots with the new armani.
Why I like it:
I like this song because of the steady,repetitive beats. The lyrics are also good because they are basically about a male boasting about how he is able to get any girl he wants- which is stereotypially 'Essex boys'.
Why I dont like it:
I however was unsure of using this song because i felt it just simply wasnt 'Essex' enough. The lyrics are not strong enough for a parody.
Song Choice 2-Reem-Joey Essex
Lyrics:
I wanna look reem,
I wanna smell reem,
I wanna be reem,
Reem.
I wanna look reem,
I wanna smell reem,
i wanna be reem,
Reem.
Why I like it:
I like this song because it was ideal for the parody of Essex, due to the over used word 'reem', and having calling my soap 'Reem', this was perfect.
Why I dont like it:
I don't like this song because i feel it isnt heavy enough in terms of the beats and the rythym of the music itself, it's too light.
Song Choice 3-Sexy And I Know It-LMFAO
Lyrics:
When I walk in the spot,
this is what I see,
Everybody stops and they staring at me,
I got passion in my pants and I ain't afraid to show it.
I'm sexy and I know it
I'm sexy and I know it
Why I like it:
I like this song choice because it fits in perfectly with my parody. My trailer and the soap itself is all about being big-headed,confident,loud and perfect. These lyrics are made for the trailer, the beating and the rythym to the song itself its fast pace, which matches up with the snippit shots in my trailer.
Why I chose it:
I chose this song choice because it was the one which fitted in best with my trailer.The combination of the lyrics and the beats were ideal.

The Only Way Is Not Essex
This spoof made by a Youtube member has given us a few ideas, having seeing a real parody of The Only Way Is Essex,has shown the conventions we need to get accross to the audience. I have learnt in order to make a parody, all you need is to use the typical conventions and storylines from the soap your mimicing, but exaggerate it a lot more!

Ancillary Soap Magazines
The TV Easy magazines feature a lot of bright, tacky like colours. They use a large number of different colours, up to around 10 different colours. They feature one big heading which is in your face and very over the top, they seem too sum the cover star's storyline/life up. They are very dramatic and say it how it is. There are buttons on the side of the cover with an image of a character in with a brief phrase/caption of what has happened or what is happening to that character. Banners are also used at the top of the page, which is a typical feature.The cover stars themselves have very cheesy facial expressions, and look as if they're up to no good. As my magazine is going to be a parody, TV Easy is a good magazine to parody because of how tacky it already is.

The Only Way Is Essex
This trailer is something which we wish to refer to-this itself is a parody trailer, because 'anything can happen on The Only Way Is Essex'. We have took a few ideas from this trailer,for example the scene where Joey Essex is doing his hair, the girls and boys getting ready, which is meeting the conventions of this soap.

Soap Poster
This is a practice poster for my ancillary. I have used the typical conventions using e4 branding and a clear action shot.
