Risk Assessment

During the production of the music video Will and I are going to be driving in my car which could be dangerous as filming while driving could make me lose concentration while driving. We have decided that all clips recorded during the ride in the car will be done by Will as i will need full concentration on the road in order to prevent an accident. Also some shots will be taken of me whilst driving which will have to be done while I am lip syncing etc. I will not be looking at the camera as i will need to concentrate on the road. 

Some shots will also be taken of the car whilst I am driving down the road, we will make sure that the headlights are always on whilst driving at night as this will enable me to have a full view of the road and Will recording the shots form the outside. As well as this I will make sure Will and I are wearing seat belts whilst in the car as this will prevent serious injury. 

We are planning on doing some shots in the sea at Southend-on-Sea however we are debating this as we would need to do this during the day and also we have no method of making sure one of the cast members does not drown in the water due to the fact there are no lifeguards at Southend-on-Sea. The only way around this would be wearing a lifejacket which could then change the mood of the video.

Representation in music video - Sexuality

Representation in music videos can vary in different ways due to many factors, these could include target audience, genre and many more. This then prevents there being a set way in which different parts of society are represented in music videos. However, there is a general consensus in music videos about how sexuality is represented. In most music videos in this modern era they tend to not cover a lot of relationships other than a heterosexual sexualty due to this being the main feelings of their target audience. many music videos play upon the feelings of their audiences or show a relationship that is heterosexual breaking up or forming. this is a very popular type of show to be in a music video due to the amount of people that can relate to this. Drake plays a large part in this by having several of his music videos having this role play and storyline in it. This then allows his audience to relate to the situations that Drake puts himself and others into on his music videos. One...

Favourite music video

Thriller by Micheal Jackson is a favourite music video for myself and will. This is due to the iconic story line and being so ahead of its time when the video was first created. Michael Jackson's Thriller was thought to be one of the pivotal music videos that inspired other music videos to have strong narratives and actually have video content in the music video which is purely narrative and not just being a video for the music from start to finish e.g. LMFAO's Party Rock Anthem. The reason why this music video is very effective is the fact that it goes out the way to go against the codes and conventions of music videos by having the music video and narrative lasting for a very long 13 minutes instead of the average 3 minutes. This allows the music video to go outside of the codes and conventions of common music videos in this current stage in time, further interesting myself and will as the music video stand out from the rest and makes it unique.

Representations in Music Videos - Ethnicity

Representation in music videos can vary in different ways due to many factors, these could include target audience, genre and many more. This then prevents there being a set way in which different parts of society are represented in music videos. However, there is a general consensus in music videos about how ethnicity is represented. White people are represented in music videos in a number of different ways. They are shown to be the main focus and mostly the 'good guys' also they can be shown to be having a good time and not in any danger so therefore a good influence. However this can be argued to not be the case in some cases due to the rock and punk genre, some may argue this is true in the rap genre as well. Black people are commonly shown to be violent and not an overall good influences for their audience. They are seen as the more boisterous and aggressive in the music video media. For example in Bugzy Malone's track 'I Suggest' he is shown to be in pris...
