Class-Vid Track/Idea

50 Cent 

Candy Shop

2004 

Hip Hop

My idea consists of remaking the original video. This consists of the male character (50 Cent) walking through a house full of girls the 'candy shop'

Each one of the male memebers in the class could play 50 Cent because there are a number of different costumes he wears and a number of different locations, this way we could change up the actors we could use. However we would have to provide a significant piece of exposition that would make it clear to the audience that each actor used is signifying 50 Cent.

The narrative is 50 Cent walking through the house and meeting a number of different girls, but there are many cut away shots to him trapping aswell as the girl singing the chorus, which the female characters in our class could split up between them. Also a scene consists of a dance routine performed by the girls in the house, this could work well in the correct location.

Costume-wise 50 Cent wears 6 different costumes in total i counted, this is an ideal way of splitting up the actors and involving everyone in the class-vid. the costumes themselves are all rather basic and would be easily accessible as some members in my class dress similiary.

As for the girls they would be dressed in lingerie, as shown in the video.

Lovcation-wise, there are about 5 different locations used split up between the narrative of the music video and the cut away shots to him rapping. On eof these consists of 50 Cent sitting on a car which i think we could do easily in the staff car park, if we chose a nice car to sit on the shot could be very similar and could be just as effective.

In terms of lip-syncing, there is alot in this video.

To summarise, i think my idea could work really well as it is a realistic, achieveble idea. With the co-operation from my peers as well as help from Dave, this video could be very good. There may be some flaws, however these would be easily solved due to the skills and quality amongst class.
