In the Jamie T video 'Sticks and Stones' youth are shown to be rebellious and aggressive towards life such as them throwing stones at the train window. This video can be seen as negative towards the youth in general however i believe there is some realism in what they are doing as it happens a lot in this culture. In other music videos though, the youth can be seen as good citizens such as 'Written in the Stars' by Tinie Tempah. In this video you can see a small child all alone but never doing anything wrong, even though he is bullied by other kids. This can infer the life Tinie Tempah possibly grew up in or maybe something he feels strongly about - bullying.
Youth in Our Music Video
We plan to use the band Midnight, who are aged between 15 and 17 and also two other characters, a boy and a girl, roughly aged 16. There will be a romance between the two characters and we will show the youth in a positive light. The general ideology of this idea will be that they will separate yet at the end will meet each other and be in each others arms. We will also use the location of Camber Sands to enhance the romantic feel to it, as beaches are often associated with romance.
Furthermore they show the boy in 'Written in the Stars' as being treated badly by is mum who is a prostitute. This shows an emotional response from the boy who waits outside while his mum does her work in the house.
The above image taken from the video shows the mum going into her flat. Below shows the boy being bullied by some basketball players; they throw all his work everywhere in front of him. This shows that the general consensus is that bullying is wrong
