History:

Clothing preferences:

The clothes that I would like the artist to wear would be smart/quite casual clothes such as;

• Jeans or trousers
 

T-shirts and Jumpers or shirts

Trainers or shoes:

Jackets or blazers:

I have used these types of clothings becuase I would like my artist to look slightly casual and smart at the same time. I believe that this would make a good aspect as it is different, you'd normally expect to find an artist with a fixed costume set in their music video meaning they wear the same thing throughout and in my videos case the artist could be changing their costume throughout the song and this would show that it wants to show more affection and meaning to the video.

 

Typography:

 

I have chosen these 5 fonts because I like them the most out of all the other fonts I have researched. The fonts look very detailed and and create attention as they look very sharp. As the websites I used to make these fonts did not use colour, in the video I will have the actual font have different colours for each word to look entertaining and also by changing colour it will also show references to the songs name which is 'Changes'.


Mise-en-scene and Imagery:



As the locations would start off dark, I would like to firstly show a dark location whilst the rapper is rapping and for the imagery it would sort of make the audience feel quite sad as a dark location would refer to sad thoughts.
In this image we see a dark location being brightened with street lights, I would like one of my rapper rapping on this kind of location to make it look very detailed and make the rapper look like they are glowing.

This picture is of the city of Boston, as the rapper raps 'don't get lost in Boston' it could result in the audience thinking about the city and how it looks.

As the song gets to the midway point I would like the locations to somehow get a bit brighter showing that the mood had also brightened. Even though the song stays on the same aim which is 'changes' I would like the video to show many changes so it associates with the name and meaning of the song.




Colours:




I would somehow like all of these colours to be shown in the music video as they are all quite bright colours. As the song is about changes that go on in life, I am thinking to make the colours associate with the changes that go on in life. The colours could be changing throughout the song to emphasise changes.


Photo of the artist:




I have chosen these two friends of mine to be the artists in the music video. As there will be two separate artists rapping their own verses, these two people will rap the two artists verses.They are both very good at lip synching and also have vague acting skills which will help for the video. Their names are Anil Vaghela and Abdullah Dayah.
