PHOTOSHOOT PLANNING

The theme of our photo shoot follows the typical grime convention of the dark and natural colours of black ad white - this is due to the fact that the artists want the audience to focus o the lyrics and music being made in addition these colours are intimidating. The photo shoot will take place in front of an estate during a night setting where everything is dark and not clear to visual so we can just focus on the artist itself. The artist will be wearing a black outfit and hat to reinforce the stereotype of the grime genre and following the idea of not wanting to be recognised due to their lyrical content. The camera shots used will consist of either a wide shot or a close up no in between as grime artist either want to show their surrounding or themselves to visualise their outfits and garms.
LINKS TO THEORIES
Our artist links similarly to the star image of Skepta with the whole black and white simple print clothing to make the audience intimidated and alert and more focused on the music or the video. This reinforces the stereotype of black young adults being typically rappers and outgoing individuals who promote violence and we are following the classical conventions of the grime genre. The clothing used will be the Nike tracksuit set which is targeting the interest of our audience which consists of young teens to young adults as everyone enjoys Skepta music as he is one of the early artists who introduced the concept of grime.
