Changing our music for our video!

When we where told about producing a music video, we where all initally very eager to begin brainstorming ideas, however the audio avaliable, didn't necessarily stimulate our thoughts... my group felt that the choices our teachers provided would hinder us, because we could not necessarily provide all the materials e.g. instruments needed to make a believable video. We understood that purhaps our teachers didnt include music that we could possibly relate to, because our idea of relatable music may seem a little risky to them, because of the violent connotations of grime music, my group therefore thought what if we could challenge the typical conventions of a grime music video. We chose broken silence by so solid crew, we picked this song because it was very obvious to us that with this we could achieve our aim! The song broken silence, discusses the difficulties faced by youths caught up in violence. We thought that we had many resources that could realistically portray our attempt to challenge such conventions.
