1) I would expect to see a bunch of boys in hoodies looking mysterious, one dominant boy. A very intimidating enviroment if you are the viewer.
2) I would expect it to be set in a dark, dingy estate maybe. Depending on lyrics could be in a very busy place. Also could be a story in which the video is shot at many different places.
3) Uusually dark, not sinister. But from viewing many grime videos i think some are bright and cheery. It usually depends on the artist themselves.
4) Depending on lyrics, yes but if the lyrics do not warrant women than I do not expect to see women.
5) Hoodies, nike trainers and addidas hoodies. Lots of young males are common. Usually of a black and white colour.
Tanuj Bhalla1) I would expect to see lots of flash cars, people smoking and big gangs of people. A mixture of boys and girls.
2) In a club with lots of young females dancing around lots of young males. Also in an urban environment.
3) Bit of both, depends on the artist and his taste in music.
4) Yeah, they act as a rebound for the males and play an important role in the music video itself.
5) Black people are common, a lot of artists are black so therefore the majority wins. Also violence is a convention which I have seen is common.
Miss Kulas1) Lots of boys in hoodies and tracksuits walking around and waving their hands about. They are usually talking about themselves and how great they are. They will be on estates and in London.
2) Rough parts of London, estates, places that have a lot of graffiti on the wall. Mainly outside.
3)Definitely not bright and cheery, but they are not usually sinister. For example, Dizzee Rascal's Holiday is quite upbeat.
4) Not really. It's usually a lot of boys walking around with their 'crew'.
5) Hoodies, boys, tracksuits, branded sports wear.
