After our pitch and receiving feedback on the choice of location we decided to go ahead with the arcade idea. The call sheet consists of the location (tracadero).

Date of shoot: 24th Jan 2014

Photographers: Cheyanne Ntangu and Tamika Aboah

Primary shoot contact: Kashif Jones

Stylist: Cheyanne Ntangu

Models: Montel and Bakar

The reason we chose the arcade was due to our case study’s and we believed using an arcade as our main location will project the fun and free youthful aspect of our video which will connect with are audience. We wanted to diverse from the standard conventional cover as our audience is a niche audience, we believe this concept of using an arcade allowed us to set an eccentric tone.

Initially, we decided to have both the artists on our front cover, However we changed to using Reljie, we observed other stimulus and discovered this option of using just a main artist was shared by other popular artist.

New Story Board

The reason we changed our story board was due to a change of actors which meant we had to alter certain scenes.

 

First Song Choice

My group and I had chosen our song for the video projection - we had chosen the song:

Artist: Jesse James ft Crave

Song: Trashy 

                

We had listened to the song before we had made out decision to make sure that each member of the group understands the meaning of the song and can have a visual idea of what the video would be like. As a group we had all shared our ideas in order to come up with scenes for the video (brainstorm below):

A2 Media Studies : Actors

                                      (Bakar)                                                      (Jesse James)

                                     Jesse James                      played by                 Bakar

Why did you choose your chosen actor to play the part of featured artist (Jesse James) ?

The way we had chosen Bakar to do the role of Jesse James was by holding an audition that didn't require him to showing that he could do the role but we started a general conversation to find out more about him. By doing this we were able to find out more about his personality and most importantly his musical interest/ what he listens to.
Reasons for choosing Bakar for the role:

• HIS PERSONALITY- Bakar is very mellow, calm and friendly individual. Jesse James' personality was very similar to Bakar's which made him great for the role as on the USSR track, the artist has a calm voice almost as if he's having a conversation with the audience - with those particular characteristics, people would want to listen to you because your easy to talk to. Jesse James would be considered as conscious rapper as he uses metaphors, juxtaposition, etc in his lyrics
• STYLE - Their sense of style is similar too, the strap back, pattern shirts, black jeans etc. They both have an Urban and chill type of look. 
• UNDERSTANDS THE LYRICAL CONTENT - This was one of our main concerns as we wanted actors that would understand the lyrics for the role that they are portraying. Again Jesse is a conscious rapper, so in order to how he raps you must look at how he does. But Bakar had understood the lyrics that gave him a clear understanding of what the artist is trying to speak about, with this he was able to emphasize on the lyrics, have the right mindset and portray the correct persona of what the lyrics is trying to convey. 
• BODY LANGUAGE - The actor had rhythm which made it easy to work with him, his body language was in time with the beat and he didn't over exaggerate on his movements. 
• WHAT HE LISTENS TO -  He listens to many artists within the alternative hip-hop music genre such as Earl Sweatshirt, Tyler the creator, Kendrick Lamar, J.Cole etc. The artists in particular that he mainly listens  to are Kendrick Lamar and J.Cole as they do Conscious rap which is political raps that focus on social and political subjects and other aspects of life.

                                           Rejjie Snow                 Played by           D'angelo

Why did you choose your chosen actor to play the part of the main artist (Rejjie Snow) ?

We was recommended by one our colleagues from another group about D'Angelo as he would be great for our particular genre. He audition by rapping Rejjie Snow's verse while my group were all present and chose him for the role. D'Angelo doesn't listen to much alternative rap, so this was a new experience for him and he did a great job portraying the artist. 

Reasons for choosing D'Angelo for the role:

• FUN AND BUBBLY PERSONALITY - He has an explosive personality which makes him a fun to work with. 
• SENSE OF STYLE - D'angelo has a similar style to Rejjie Snow, Rejjie sense of style is very laid back, his bucket-hats and bucket hats is what makes a statement in his outfits. his clothing represents/reflects his personality in a way as being cool and chilled. 
•  BODY LANGUAGE - It was kind of difficult to work with D'angelo as he didn't really comprehend the follow of the Rejjie. When it comes to Rejjie it's all about the lyrics so there is not much body movement as such.  
• WHAT HE LISTENS TO- Rejjie has been compared to rappers such as Tyler the creator, which is true. He listens to a wide range of musicians from rappers to jazz blue artists. This is evident through his instrumentals and beats as he manages to combine jazz and hip hop beats together. Which makes his an alternative rapper.
