Today me and my teammates sat down and came up with the aesthetics of our music video. We created a mood board to make it more easier to understand:

  Today me and my team sat down and came up with our final narrative! It took us a while to perfect but we are really happy with the outcome. Here it is: Salaar is shown passed out on his bed in his extremely messy room. He then suddenly wakes up and feels uneasy. He gets up from his bed and struggles to get to the bathroom to try to sober up by washing his face. Once he washes his face, he looks at himself in the mirror and does not recognize himself. After a good look in the mirror, Salaar suddenly feels like throwing up and runs to the toilet to let out all the toxins from his body. He sits back up and starts thinking. Inside Salaar's mind, he's thinking about I Samrah reminiscing about all the good times he had with her, he was happy. His mind is suddenly then bombarded with the memory of when he realized it was finally over between them. He starts to remember how he received a picture of Samrah with another guy, she had moved on. When he saw this picture, he couldn't...

Animation: These types of music videos have an animated film with the soundtrack playing in the background. These videos usually do not have anything real to show to the viewer, even though the song is produced by the original artist. Interpretive: This type of music video can be interpreted by the audience in many ways.  Each person can see this video in different ways and understand a different meaning according to their mentality. Impressionist: An impressionist music video can be used to show a particular theme to the audience. It includes random and peculiar shots and images to express the theme of the video. Abstract features are usually used in the style.  Intertextuality: References used from some other media product, mythology, history or any other existing thing is taken and shown in the style of music vide...

  What is the technical meaning of representation? Because meaning is created by mise en scene, camera work, editing, and sound, whenever an event, group of people, or topic is conveyed through a media text, it becomes a representation because the full truth of a situation cannot be fully given. Stereotypes are frequently used in representation to make issues, groups of people, and events simpler to identify, but this raises its own problems that are discussed in a number of theories. As any other form of media literature, music videos produce representations from which viewers can derive their own unique interpretations. What is music representation?
