Lyrics to the part of the song we are going to be filming

Hey, I can be the answer
I'm ready to dance when the vamp up
And when I hit that dip get your camera
You can see I been that bitch since the pamper
And that I am that young sis the beacon
The bitch who wants to compete and
I can freak a fit that pump with the peep and
You know what your bitch become when her weave in
I just wanna sip that punch with your peeps and
Sit in that lunch if you're treatin'
Kick it with the bitch who comes from Parisian
She know where I get mine from and the season
Now she wanna lick my plum in the evenin'
And fit that tongue tongue d-deep in
I guess that cunt gettin' eaten
I guess that cunt gettin' eaten
I guess that cunt gettin' eaten
I guess that cunt gettin' eaten
I guess that cunt gettin'...

I was in the 212
On the uptown A
Nigga you know what's up
Or don't you?
Word to who made ya
I'm a rude bitch nigga
What are you made up of?

Filming Schedule for the Music Video


We want to start filming as soon as possible to give ourselves as much time as we need in case something goes wrong or doesn't look right. Saturday will allow to get the shots to be filmed which establish the music video clip, with the shots of street lights and location (houses and streets). Monday will be used to film at college when everyone will be here, Ellie who is going to be in the video will be free during our groups media lesson.Wednesday the 18th of June is the ideal filming time, from 2.50pm until 4pm as our whole group as well as the cast have free time, so hopefully everyone can be involved. This will allow for everyone to input.

Shot by Shot analysis of 212

To be able to successfully recreate the music video, I have gone through and taken a screen shot every time it changes and for how many seconds it's on this. This means there will hopefully be accurate timing and be able to do the same in filming.
The first 4 images are establishing the setting of the music video, and helps create an understanding as to where it is. They flash onto each other quickly so it doesn't get boring.
Some more parts to the videos, and introducing everyone who features throughout, in short bursts at a time.
The video continues similarly to this, going from a close up shot to an extreme close up shot and back and forth. It fits in with the rhythm of the song. I think it also emphasises the meaning of the song, which is quite rude when uncensored! Focusing on the mouth.

Preliminary Task - 1 Minute Recreation of a Music Video

For the preliminary task I am in a group with Rachel, Josh and Will from my media class. We are going to be recreating the first minute of the music video for 212 by Azealia Banks.

Initial Ideas

In our group we searched for many music videos in order to find one which we really liked. All of the videos have a lot of different types of editing, including our final choice which is 212 by Azealia Banks. The video is in black and white which also helps us experience changing the colour in editing.

AS - A2 Transition Brief

In order to prepare for your A2 Media Studies coursework- The Advanced portfolio, you need to:

-Work in a group of 3 or 4 people to plan and produce a reconstruction of a minute from an existing music video.
-Set up your individual A2 Coursework blog and choose your coursework brief
-Gather and evidence research into the conventions of your chosen brief over the summer starting with codes and conventions of your media form with examples, and also the genre of the text you intend to produce. (i.e. Music Video conventions and Rock Conventions).
