statement of intent (music video)

My music video will be on the track 'elevation' which is written by M huncho.  My music video will allow the viewer to experience a journey; as this is shown in the lyrics. The viewer is put into the actor’s life and will be made to experience different aspects of it; from loneliness to love to anger to regret. My overall aim for the music video is to take my viewer through a journey and allow them to experience my actor’s life. In most of the shots, I will want the main actor by himself to convey how he has gone through his journey on his own. The only other character that i want featured in the music video is a female that he has his eyes on possibly showing when he finally meets her. I will use a mise en scene of nature to further emphasise how real and tough his experience is. My actor will be dressed in casual clothing to emphasise how the feelings expressed in the video is experienced by many young people. In one scene, I want the main actor to be alone in a dark room wea...

Task 2 Audience profile

Image
HIP HOP AUDIENCE Hip-hop as a genre isn't often marketed towards children or older adults due to it's themes and lyrics which are always either heavy with a social struggle theme or with a party like theme, with neither of those topics appealing to younger or very old audience. Hip-hop also appeals to the youth who look up to idols. due to the fact that Hip-hop is such a popular genre for the youth, companies, such as Fila, Nike, Addidas, love to use rappers and artists to sell merchandise. Old school hip-hop was all about the struggles of growing up in ghettos and inner cities with high crime rates and lack of care from the goverments. This lead to rap becoming a way for people to express themselves to the world. Modern hip-hop is a lot more experimental with hip-hop being a lot more then struggle music. Future and drake (examples of modern rappers) focus on making music for parties and good vibes rather then deep thoughtful hood hits (which was the m...
