Conventions of hip:hop from brandonforan
Having chosen the genre Hip Hop/Rap, it was important that I had an in depth understanding of the generic conventions of this genre so as that I can apply them when creating my music video and other ancillary tasks.
Thus, I researched into the camera angles that are important in Hip Hop/Rap music videos, the clothes that are worn by the artists and the jewellery that can help make the artist's look. I looked at example music videos in the genre and the history behind the genre and how it became what it is today.
I also researched into Artists Representation to further my understanding of how to represent my chosen artist in this genre. This included their dress, how to ensure that they look as though they have money, power and dominance over others, and other themes that are common within the genre such as dominance over females.
Lastly, I did research into the sub genres's within Hip Hop such as R&B, this mix of Hip Hop/R&B ended up being the genre that we chose to base our music video on so the research I did here was very useful and meant that I had thorough knowledge of the genre before we started planning our video.

Brandon, this needs an extensive introduction, explanation...etc. You need to be telling us what the task is and how it is going to help you in the completion of the research itself.
