Definitions
We thought we needed to create a video with captured Tramp Etiquettes unique essence, so we first decided to look on their web page and talk to them, to see how they would define themselves, this is what we discovered;
1)
“Everything you love, but slightly better!!!! ... Feel free to paint your own influences and references on the Tramp Etiquette Sound... But no doubt that'll change next week.”
2)
From the Collins English Dictionary and Thesaurus:
‘To Tramp:
1: To walk heavily or firmly
2: A heavy or rhythmic tread
Etiquette:
1: ‘A conventional code or practice followed in certain professions or groups.’
We took from this that this band was humours, but also intelligent, they have a clever sense of humour, and this also highlights their emphasis on attention to detail, and after meeting them, they are defiantly perfectionists.
The other definition of Tramp Etiquette that the band likes to use is;
3)
‘Mummy, what's a Tramp Etiquette?
Well, dear, it's the act of four, disturbingly fertile young men, leaving heavy and rhythmic tracks across the conventional highways of mediocre rock dross. Now go to your room and listen to the Feeling instead.
But Mummy, I'm bored of the Feeling. Daddy says they're too safe. He says Oasis have lost their edge, the Pigeon Detectives are crap and that modern British Rock and Roll is too safe. Is Daddy right?
Yes, dear, Daddy's right, thank the Lord. Rock and, indeed, Roll has finally become a safe place for children to play; a nice, neat and tidy adventure playground. Take my advice, daughter, and stay away from those shady trees where the likes of those Tramps reside and stick with the squeaky clean swings and roundabouts of the Feeling.’
As before this definition show cases the bands humour and provides a comical spin on the industry and the genre they represent.
With the band creating this representation for themselves, we knew we needed to make the video amusing, energy the, mischievous and exhilarating to allow it to represent the band in an appropriate manor.
Permission email
We realised after we started to plan that we should have documentation from the band that gives permission for us to use their songs, so i contacted Tom and he gave me the email address from the band’s manager who sent me an email confirming that they gave us the rights to use their song.
