Props...

Within the exam hall shots at the beginning at in the middle of the music video during the bridge, we used the props of exam papers, this was to help set the location in the establishing scene at the beginning- to show our audience that this was actually a exam. I made the exam papers by finding the front of a previous media exam picture, printing that out and then instead of juts having a single sheet of paper (I found this didn't look very realistic), I sellotaped a joining piece of paper by bending one of the edges to make it appear like a booklet, I found this much more successful in displaying an exam paper.

After the song has started, one of the first shoots we see is of this corkboard with lots of different gig tickets on and polaroids . I find this a really important prop because I believe it fits in with the conventions of a youth music video. This is because it shows our character is massively sociable and goes out a lot. I believe this counts as a convention of a youth music video because if we didn't show props such as this one, it wouldn't appear that our character is going out instead of staying revising and being a "good student".
