Representation now and in our music video


Representation now and in our music video 


Representation is always changing and in our music video we will follow the typical conventions of the different characters. One of our main protagonist in our video will have a gambling/debt problem. In this we will not subvert the conventions of a gambler but follow the stereotype. We will do this by displaying items in the scene to show that he is in debt/gambling problems. For example we will include something like a letter of notice or an overdue bill to show the audience clearly that he has money/gambling issues. With this issues the target audience should support the this character during the music video.  The character will also be dressed in an untidy shirt and tie. This will be to show that all these problems are also displayed in the characters appearance.

With our main antagonist we will dress him up in dark clothing to show that he is the antagonist. This will allow us to display the juxtaposition of both characters. He will wear either a dark shirt or a black hoodie. For his back story we  will show him as a person who plays poker for fun and not have anything on the line. We will do this by showing him playing online poker in his backstory. In the scene we will also have a book about poker to show the audience that he is playing poker to win.
