Ext. establishing shot of Northolt(the hood)
(Non-diegetic sound tack over diegetic voice over)
Medium to long shots are taken of Northolt in montage form to generate establishing shots of Northolt. Iconic places like Northala Fields, the A40 motor way, Northolt station, clock tower and surrounding estates like race course and Islip Manour will used to set the tone for the trailer. Non-diegetic music will be used to fill the montage scenes and could potentially play as back ground noise over the voice over narration. 

Protagonist (voice over - diegetic)

Dear Lord,(fade in)please forgive us for all the sins we have brought upon us,(fade to black)

A POV shot follows a moving Police car with sirens on driving at high speed. The scene would be set at night so the use of street lights would be used to generate top down lighting. As the car drives past, the camera would turn to an over the shoulder shot of a male wearing a hoodie looking on as the car drives past. Diegetic sound of the sirens will be used to show elements of crime will be displayed throughout the trailer. 

 (fade in)and look down upon us with forgiveness for all the sins we will have(fade to black)in the future. 

The camera will be looking down on a group of boys crowding around on the shop corner. The boys will being wearing tracksuits and puffer jackets to generate stereotypes linked to youth that live in urban areas.

(fade in)I know you understand we ain't perfect,(fade to black)

Close up on the protagonists face screwed up to show his emotional state. He has is hands on his head to show he's drowning in his emotions. This could potentially make the audience feel sympathetic towards his situation which they are yet to uncover - enigma code. 

 (fade in)but we try Lord.(fade to black)

Mid-close up of protagonist kissing his baby sister. The camera will the shot reverse/shot on her face. This will be used to show the audience his caring nature towards his loved ones.

(fade in)Show us the way. And if you can't show us the way,(fade to black) 

Medium close-up on Best friend crying while putting on gloves. This scene would be put in slow motion to heighten the the intensity of the drama.

 then forgive us for being lost.

Michael Jackson - Billie Jean blog tasks

Media Magazine reading:  Billie Jean , birth of an icon Go to our  Media Magazine archive  and read the case study on  Billie Jean  - birth of an icon (MM62 - page 20). Answer the following questions: 1) What was the budget for  Billie Jean ? How did this compare with later Michael Jackson videos? The budget was $50,000, which was 6 times less than 'Beat It', which went into production 5 weeks later with a budget of $300,000. Thriller was much bigger with $2mill to spend.  2) Why was the video rejected by MTV? It didn't suit their 'middle America' audience, meaning because Michael Jackson was black. The president of the record label then threatened to take all their music videos off MTV, which afterwards MTV backed off and allowed the video to be played. 3) Applying Goodwin's theory of music video, how does  Billie Jean  reflect the genre characteristics of pop music video?
