timeline analysis of our song "you shoulda put something on"

intro
Eyeaahhhhhh
Owoooooeee
listen to what i have to tell ya


Verse 1  
You know we ain't cool with one another
You don't deserve to decide when I'm gonna be a papa (Never)
However much I hate you think I'm gonna sit around
And watch the little one suffer (NO)
I ain't gonna lie I'm always behind when you get on all 4's
But when your belly popped out you said it was my fault,
You told me I shoulda put something on


Verse 2
You weren't sayin' shit wen I was lickin on your pelvis
Now your tryna act up saying that I'm selfish
I ain't ready for no pikni I can't help it
And it's too late to say I should of worn a helmet
I would love to be the perfect dad
I would love to give my kids everything I never had (straight)
All I'm tryna say is now ain't the time
So if you don't wanna listen it's best I just leave



Chorus 
Who do you think you are I ain't gettin rid of shit
This is a part of me don't blame me, you should of put something on,
(but I'm just a man, you know how we are,
I don't wanna be involved it's not my fault) It's like you thinking about yourself,
It's only you you you and noone else,
So take responsibility, you should of put something on,
So who do you think you are I ain't getting rid of shit,
Don't get this, don't blame me, you shoulda put something 


Verse 3 Something let me tell you bout something,
Recognise you can't tell me nothing but one thing boy you got my blood pumping,
I'm ragin at you, you got me so damn angry,
Your selfish and ruthless so useless excuses mean nothing to me,
This child is a part of me,
You can't begin to understand so while it's living and growing inside,
But you're just a man, you don't understand,
Get outta my(No) get outta my(No) get outta my face my face my face.


Chorus  Who do you think you are I ain't getting rid of shit
This is a part of me don't blame me, you should of put something on,
(but I'm just a man, you know how we are,
I don't wanna be involved it's not my fault)
It's like you thinking about yourself,
It's only you you you and no1 else,
So take responsibility, you should of put something on,
So who do you think you are I ain't getting rid of shit,
Don't get this, don't blame me you should of put something


Verse 4
I feel for you but you knew the deal
(you was lying wen you said you was on the pill)
I have to be real with you
I think we both know that the both of us ain't got much doe
I'm afraid I can't be involved,

It's just the same old selfishness with you
Don't pretend your understanding
It's a little too late to act confused
Cause I know what I'm gonna do do do do do
Who do you think you are?


Chorus 
Who do you think you are I ain't getting rid of shit
This is a part of me don't blame me, you should of put something on,
(but I'm just a man, you know how we are,
I don't wanna be involved it's not my fault)
It's like you thinking about yourself, it's only you you you and no one else,
So take responsibility, you shoulda put something on,
So who do you think you are I ain't getting rid of shit,
Don't get this, don't blame me you should of put something on

Anylising the music video made by btec students last year

I think that this music video is a performance and narrative video  because it tells a story about a man  who is struggling in life. This video follows the hip hop music video conventions very well because it is filmed on the street in rough looking areas. the location and setting fits in well with the hip hop image. the clothes they used the, hoodie, jeans, trainers also fitted well in to the hip hop image.

they used a range of camera angles which helped make the music fit in to the hip hop image. it also made the video interesting to watch by using different camera angles.the costumes used are in the video are good because they go well and symbolise the hip hop image. the lighting and colour used in this video is very dull because it is a sad song about a man struggling in life needing an oppurtunity and needing a chance.

Risk assessment for our project

Our video will be made in areas around the school and because of this we need to be extra careful in what we do because we might be filming outside of school in a public area we need to be careful because there are alot of people around. To avoid any accidents we need to walk around slowly and responsibly so we do not come in the way of people and cause problems.

Our video might also be recorded outside of school in an ally way near pool meadow we are filming it there because it fits in well with the theme of our music video. we need to be careful while we are filming there because there are a lot of people walking through this ally way to get in to town. To avoid any serious accidents we will be filming in this location in the morning because it will not be busy at that particular time and we will not come in the way of people.

Our video might also be recorded in the music studio inside of school. we are filming there because it is used in a lot of music videos. we need to be extra careful in this area because there is alot of equipment in this area so to avoid any serious accidents we will have to be extra carefull so we do not knock any equipmentb over.

My mood board for our project

Planning and Preparation For Our Project

The music video that we have chosen to do our project on is called "Should Of Put Something on". This is a song made by the group N-Dubz, this song has not got an official video. anthony is going to perform the song and i am going to record him on camera. we think that it is a narrative song. anthony is going to walk around school while i film him. the video will be set on school grounds in different areas of the school. we might film a little part of our video outside of school as well. anthony is going to be the protagonist (hero) of our video. we need a girl also to mime girls singing.

in this music video there are two different story lines happening one of the story lines is told by Dappy and the other story line is told by Tulisa. in the first of the music video it describes two people not getting along with one another which is sang by Dappy. the song shows that there is a small child somehow involved in the song because in the song it says "do you think that im gunna sit around and watch him suffer". this shows that the child is suffering because if stuff that does not involve him. when Tulisa starts singing she talks about someone being blamed for no reason.
