This song is rapped by Little Wayne in a hip-hop R n B style genre. It relates to the type of music video our group wants to develop with the effects and continuous use of editing, such as variety of camera shots. The idea of our music video is to make it catchy, attractive and not boring to the audience. So we will use some techniques from the Lil Wayne music video. We are looking to use a few vibration shots, where you get some camera shake from this video. We are also looking to relate the lyrics of our song according to the beat and words of the music. So each scene and character will represent something.
Many people think that hip hop is mainly based on drugs, alcahol, and money, which is why most people have negative views on these types of genre. The type of clothing used can clearly show that its hip hop and most people can relate to this type of fashion. The main character Lil Wayne is wearing a sleveless t-shirt, with shorts, and casual white plimsoles along with white socks. The type of cloting releates to the type of song as its set in that kind of atmosphere, where it's smoky, cold, shakey lactions. So all this relates when it comes to music, clothes and location.
Colin Tiley did a nother successful Music Video with a very suitable & well chosen mise en scene that really supports the tempo, tone & style of the song John by Lil Wayne. The camera work, editing & style are definitely an inspiration for my Look At Me Now Remix Music Video.

The Young Money Record label which is owned by Lil Wayne himself definitely tried to sell this track on how wealthy and powerful Lil Wayne & Rick Ross are. There are loads of close ups, medium shots & long shots from diffewrent views or angles of the artists throughout. This is to represent the expensive jewellery, clothes, shoes & show their dominance in the song & other actresses and actors are their crew who works for them. This video continues its tradition of representing Lil Wayne as wealthy, powerful & a ladies man which are a very good representation of himself to the world to make his fans and other people shows some respect & honor. This also shows that he is not just a music artists but he is an art himself, as he got tatoos all over his body & diamond teeth.
The Music video is mostly balanced between performance & concept made by Lil Wayne, Rick Ross & the director Colin Tiley. The isn’t any story or narrative told in this video, this is because they want to sell the artists more than a story which can accompany the song. By doing this the artists appearance and style reputatuion are increasing more than put a side story while the music is playing.
