Planning: Final idea

Artist: Sza ft. Kendrick Lamar 
Song Title: Babylon
Genre: Hip Hop/ Soul

We have chosen the artist SZA because she is such a different arist her song Babylon with her group member Kendrick Lamar has a great meaning of love, trust and betrayal as to why our group thought we could create a good narrative to this song. This song falls under the Hip Hop/Soul genre because its a nice balance of rap and soulful singing which makes it appeal to different audiences. Also the song is so relatable for teenagers so our target audience would be easy to choose.

Video content:
We have decided to create a narrative based around 3 scenarios
Scenario 1: A couple that are going through relationship problems and issues resolve their problems by using violence and aggression. They take their life's by overdosing on pills/drugs.

Scenario 2: A girl that is a young carer of her younger siblings while taking her A level exams is under so much stress she decides to take her life by drowning herself in a river.

Scenario 3: A young girl is in her prom dress depressed walking around crying. We see a group of people bully and make fun of her. She tries to take her life by jumping in front of a moving train

Video structure:
my video structure will consist of narrative and performance because we have the artists singing and rapping with the story behind it.

Star image:
Our star image will be based on the prom girl because she is a perfect representation of a teenager so for her to be the artist she will connect more with our target audience. We wont use Mulvey's male gaze theory because I don't think it will help present the narrative well and the characters are young.

  1. Some planning and drafting of your final idea.

    To improve;
    -think about whether all your scenarios are realistic to achieve... especially scenario 2 and 3
    -what mise en scene do you plan to use?
    -as this song has two artists, discuss the representation of each.
