Music video
Media Representation
In my music video I plan on using Hebrides theory to represent young people. The main characters will be predominantly black and young, illegal activity will be implied allowing the viewer to have a stereotypical view on black young males. Alvarado’s theory on the representation of black people will also be incorporated into my music video as shots of them having fun, laughing, dancing and enjoying themselves will also be used showcase the audience that they can be exotic, comedic.
Media Language
Media language will be used as I will be telling a sort of narrative throughout the music video (Todorov). This will detail the events of the earlier life of an adult so I also plan on using colours to signify different periods of time with his younger life being brighter and lighthearted and his older life being set primarily in dark lit scenes to imply the wrong doings he ends up getting involved in. Todorov’s narrative theory will be reflected through the colours, body language, mise en scene sound and camera work, this will be achieved as some scenes depicted will be deliberately shot making someone look small/tall.
Media Audience
My media audience are aged between 16 – 25 and in category AB. It may be more relevant to younger black males as a lot of the actors fit that description so it may be more relatable to that group of viewers. However, the overall narrative of the arc of the story can be applied to and anyone. (Socio-economic) actors will be permitted to wear casual clothing such as tracksuits or jeans to appeal more to the working class as that is the class, I am a part of.
Media Industry
(Intertextuality) I will include a lot of intertextual links in my music video on police brutality etc., towards black people as reference to the ‘black lives matter’ movement. I plan on trying to get shots of police cars and implied violence. The main actor will be wearing designer branding. I will have opening/closing credits. My opening and closing credits will consist of the actor's videographer director and producer. I then used the premiere pro software to edit all the shots I had taken and add any necessary effects. (Neal's) theory on gene conventions has also been reflected through my repeated themes of gang violence within the shots. (Godwin’s) theory will be reflected through the visuals and illustration of a music video as they will match up with the music and the beat. The editing will be directly be in relation to the beat.
Website
Media Representation
within my website design I plan on using Hebrides theory on represent young people as i will have one of my actors be the face and background of the first page of the website. The pictures and background of the first page will be dark and showcase one of the actors looking down on a dark street allowing the viewer to have a stereotypical view on black young males as this pictures adds a sense of mystery and enigma which could play into the stereotype of young people being fun and troublesome. Alvarado’s theory on the representation of black people will also be incorporated into my website as on the second page will be more light hearted as a picture of another actor/artist will be used as the background in which the tone has a warmer glow as the model will have a more happy expression on there face amongst a sunset.
Media Language
Media language will be used as I will be telling a sort of narrative through the images on my website in relation to my music video. (Todorov). I plan on doing this by having the first page reflect the young adult life as it is dark and gloomy which is similar to the music video as the tone of the video changes when the scenes of the adult appear to show the way his life is going in this period of time. The second page will then be directly contrasting the first page as we see the younger actor in a more appropriately lit area possibly showing the joys of youth before adulthood hits. His younger life is brighter and light hearted and his older life being set primarily in dark lit scenes to imply the wrong doings he ends up getting involved in. Todorov’s narrative theory will be reflected through the colours, body language, mise en scene sound and camera work, this will be achieved as some of the pictures depicted will be deliberately shot making someone look small/tall.

The website will be spacious with large font to make it easily traversable and clear to understand for younger audiences.

(Godwin’s) theory will be reflected through the visuals and illustration of my website as the first page will be for the older demographic that i am aiming for and the second page will be for the younger demographic i plan on appealing to.
