Brief Of The Band

First of all we had a look at all the briefs given to us of the different genres availible and we came to a agreement that we wanted to go for something that we knew we could work well with so we decided to go for good girls gone bad. The decision of the was discussed over quiet a long period of time because we didnt really like the songs that we were given but in the end seen as we all like destinys child we chose the song Bugga Boo. We watched the video looked at the lyrics and decided we liked the whole concept of the video and we could work with it. Coming up with the name of the band took a long while as most of the ideas we were coming out with sounded cheesy or were just crap, but in the end we managed to think of a good band name which was Bullets And Barbies. We chose this name for the band because it goes with the whole concept of Good Girls Gone Bad you wouldnt normally asociate bullets with barbies.

Young Money - Bed Rock , Codes And Conventions








Bed Rock is a track performed by Young Money who are a famous rap group signed to cash money records founded by Lil Wayne.


Through out this video we see a lot of pretty girls dancing around the house getting all close with the rappers. The use of the girls is symbolising that the rap lifestyle is full of pretty girls throwing themselves at you which relates to the lyrics of the song because it refers to women the whole way through. All through the video the rappers flash their money and chains and throw money on a snooker table they do this to show that they are super rich and they don't care how much money they spend it don't matter to them.

The video is very colourful to get the audience attention and is easy on the eye. The camera shots are very quick sharp shots each catching different shots of the rappers rapping and messing around in the mansion most of the shots are mid section pictures.

Digi Pack Anylysis



First of all the iconic picture of michael jackson is used on this album cover to draw the audience in , this will draw them in because he looks young and innocent and thats the michael jackson the fans all used to know and love. They used this picture very effectivley because this was michael before all the media stories that have been in the news which damaged his career. The colors used on this digi pack have been chosen very carefully the use of gold makes the album seem elegant , this is michael jackson sharing something special with his fans not just a normal CD cover for them to buy. Michael Jackson is wearing a pure white suit on the front cover of his CD cover to symbolise that he is pure allmost angel like this gives the audience a warm feeling and therfore connects with them

The signature on the album cover makes the audience feel very close to Michael , It shows that he has thought about his fans and wanted to make them feel special by putting his signature there. This is a smart tactic because normaly fans would die to get Michael Jackson to sign a shirt or something , so to do that he is catering to his fans and thinking of them.




The inside pictures tell two different stories allmost like a heaven vs hell scenario the good in him vs the bad. In the thriller picture michael is wearing red and black with yellow snake eye contacts. The red and black symbolises evil but also power shown by him covering up the woman in this picture. We can see by the grin on his face he is enjoying the power he has over the woman because she is scared and he knows this. But in the next picture we see Michael in a more heavenly look. He is holding a little tiger which shows that he is a gentle man and as we all know he loves animals. As we all know tigers are meant to be dangerous animals that eat meat so using a cute little baby tiger is another little trick the media has used to symbolise this image. The colors in the two pictures are very diferent as well. The thriller picture has a weird kind of green color in the back which again potrays the dark side. But in the other pic we have a black background with a white light the black background is used to really make the white of Michaels suit stand out and glow.
