Problems

I'm having problems getting in touch with the producers of the Devlin song. The problem is i cannot find an e-mail or anything anywhere, I'm not even sure if it is the rite label. 5this label is Universal Music UK, which is an offspring of the Universal Music Group. They have off springs all over the world, i have an address and a contact number but i don't want to write a letter or phone them up about something so informal.

Universal Music Direct
364-366 Kensington High Street
Kensington
London
W14 8NS

Above is their address and below is their contact number. I've put these on just in case there are no other options.

0845 070 2036

This is their website, i cant find anything that will give me a clear e-mail address but i have managed to put the question to the support team some how so hopefully i will have a reply soon.

Ooops

I was talking a while ago about what music i want in my trailer. It was really hard and i managed to file it down to a few different songs. Well the thing is i was bored the other day so i was listening to random music and i heard a song which just clicked. The name of this song it

Devlin - Brainwashed
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRob2t2PPek

gives a real urban feel towards it, i think it would suit it down to the ground. Now all i have to do is write to the producers of the song and ask if i am allowed to use it for my trailer. I will update this message when i have a reply. Just to remind myself i will leave i bold sentence.
UPDATE WHEN HAVE A REPLY

Collective identity within the media

I need to represent identity for each of my characters, identity within media can be a muddle, everyone wishes to have an identity, something unique about our self, representing this in my trailer will give the audience a feel of knowing with whats going on eg. ' I've been there before'. Interpellation - the social.ideological practice of misrecognising our self can be seen in today's media. the fact that people are seen as we want to be seen is a matter that is beyond peoples capability. What i mean by this is that, girls for instance look at a magazine cover, there is a beautiful model on the cover and they want to look like that. Matters like this is what is currently providing people their identity in my opinion. an example is shown below.





















As you can see the picture above is gut wrenching. If these are the lengths people go to to have their ideal identity then it obviously plays a huge part in peoples lives. This will have a big impact on my trailer. I aim to stereotype each person ed Hearts and Danny will be in hoodies, urban associated and their physical performance will look different to Elizas which will be smartly dressed and posh. Hopefully taking the stereotypes to the extreme will convey to the audience in the way i want it to.


The types of identity in my trailer are shown below.

As you can see a Gangster a Posh Woman and a Thug. These are the stereotypes i wish to put into my trailer.
