Generic Convention

The conventions of a stereotypical music video are as follows;
Pose, Composition, Image, Font, Props, Settings, Colours, Expression.

Having researched and analysed a number of Rap/HipHop videos, I would consider the following as conventions of the genre;

  • Bling
  • Money
  • Fast cars
  • Girls
  • Black rappers
These are all conventions of the RAP genre music videos, i have included some of these conventions, but not all. The reasoning behind this being that i didn't want a stereotypical music video, i wanted a video that stood out from the rest, the song is definitely one that follows the crowd, but the video is different.

  1. These aren't conventions of rap. They're just the things I asked you to look at when analysing digipaks. So Rap will have particular props that are conventional (e.g. bling)
