Genre:
- The genre of this song is American rap which is quite mainstream in todays society.
- This would be a good genre to use as in todays society, most teens tend to listen rap music and this would be a good target audience to aim for so they'd gain an interest in that respect.
- The music video would also relate to teens as they tend to go to house parties a lot.
Contact:
- Contacting this artist would possibly be difficult as he is an Amercian rapper so therefore it may take a while for them to reply in order to gain permission to make a music video for their song.
- I would contact this artist as they have different platforms to contact them on on their Soundcloud page so I'd be able to send a message and wait for a reply e.g. Through email
- Another problem would be getting the actual artist to feature in the music video himself so therefore we would have to use friends that we know who wouldnt mind being in the video and acting as the artist.
- Also instead of having someone to lip-sync/feature, we can just do a music video that tells a narrative instead but links to the lyrics.
Pitch:
- An idea for this music video could be a house party where it starts off with the artist turning up in their car and there is a slow mo of them entering and as the dialogue starts it would switch to the artist lip syncing.
- The intro would be slightly muffled and when the song begins the volume would increase to full volume.
- It would then be followed by cuts of different scenes within the house party itself of people drinking, images of bottles and money as the artist would symbolise the typical show off type artist.
- We would try to have the artist in jewellery e.g. chains, watch, rings to emphasise the image of the artist having lots of money.
- Within the background of the artist lip syncing, there will be extras dancing to the music and enjoying the party which would create a sense of verisimilitude.
- The lighting used throughout the music video would be quite coloured such as purple, green, red which would give it a house party look and make things more realistic.
