Influences of alternative music
This document discusses the influences of alternative music. It begins in the early 1980s in the UK and was influenced by bands like The Clash and The Who.

Alternative rock then began as an underground phenomenon in the 1980s, gaining popularity through bands like R.E.M. and The Smiths. The 1990s saw alternative rock's commercial peak with Nirvana's album Nevermind achieving major success, though this also led some to argue it was no longer a truly alternative genre.
History of alternative music
Alternative music first emerged in the mid-to-late 1980s with bands like The Cure, R.E.M., Radiohead, and Jane's Addiction incorporating genres like reggae, folk, electronic, punk, and grunge into rock music. These bands did not fit existing genres, so their sound was dubbed "alternative." In the 1990s, Nirvana's "Nevermind" helped popularize alternative rock.

There are 3 types of music video notes 1
There are three main types of music videos:
1. Narrative videos contain footage that tells a story line, sometimes using clips from movies if the song was a soundtrack. These are more expensive to produce.
2. Performance videos primarily show the band or artist performing. They are a cheaper alternative but use various shots to keep it interesting.
3. Conceptual videos are based around a concept and involve significant post-production editing. Michael Jackson's "Black or White" is an example of an extremely expensive conceptual video.
However, some music videos combine elements of all three types.

Question 2
The document discusses how the film represents the target audience of males aged 16-25.
The costume and actors were chosen to match what the target audience typically wears and looks like, such as hoodies and jeans, to make them feel represented.
While some conventions were followed, like casting actors of the target age, other elements like setting the interrogation in a classroom challenged conventions too much. This may prevent the target audience from engaging with the film as intended.
Props
Dexter will use a belt to tie up his hands during an interrogation scene. Jonty will provide old style keys to unlock the padlock on the belt restraining Dexter. A table and chairs from a classroom will also be used as props, with the table and basic, non-descript chairs fitting the interrogation setting.
Cast Costume
The document summarizes costumes for three characters - Derick, Sir, and Man 1 - in a short film on a limited budget. Derick will wear a grey hooded sweatshirt to portray a "bad guy", along with a striped shirt to give mixed impressions, and blue jeans for relatability. Sir will wear a burgundy hoodie to convey boldness and power, though this will only be apparent at the end. Man 1 will wear a white t-shirt with red sleeves to falsely imply purity while also signaling danger.
Cast
Dexter Gibson was chosen to play Derick because he has experience in stage productions and currently plays a main role in his school's production of Singin' in the Rain, making him a competent actor. Mathew Davies was selected to play Sir due to his height of 6'5", which will allow him to appear intimidating while interrogating Derick.

Cast
Dexter Gibson was chosen to play Derick because he has experience in stage productions and currently plays a main role in the school's production of Singin' in the Rain, making him a competent actor for the role. Jonty Preston was selected as Sir due to his height of 6ft 5in, which will allow him to appear intimidating when interrogating Derick but his size won't always work against the role. Mathew Davies was cast as Man 1 because his tall stature will make him look intimidating.
Props
This document lists props needed for a film production. It identifies props for specific actors like handcuffs and keys. General props include an old-fashioned desk light to be purchased from a charity shop, basic classroom tables and chairs to fit the style of integrating into a classroom setting for the film.
