guilty simpson

black and white it and let the colour through on automation




foreground








from far lower right dock

have the sky as a layer. make it dramatic as fuck. change the sky for each scene.


move the camera through the gaps in buildings to reveal more city / or another city.


copy lighted windows/sections and replace those that are dark???

Stills. Night-time. City street shots. Architecture. 


Animate around the images using different speed ramps. Make wireframes for 3D effect.


When closed in on an element of the image play image sequence of lots of versions of that subject until the final one is the element from the new image which we animate out from.


Map text on to surfaces to show the word play of first verse especially.


Try to use long exposure light art. Highlight subjects within frame. Create new characters etc (maybe narrative).


Find buildings with coloured lights or interesting artificial lighting. Traffic lights, streetlights. Take torches to 'flash paint' and highlight certain subjects.


lights flash around image in time to bleeps.


dynamic text... only use text to emphasise the wordplay... do it dynamically while embedding it into the environment 


windows as keys


he isn't performing so what is the main focus??? do we get press shots and put him in? do we just use pete? introduce Guilty simpson with a press shot.
Use Pete. get him to bring BIG headphones and his fisher price or some piece of equipment. maybe my 1210. if using turntable then get him to bring a copy of record if he has one for sleeve to be in it. few outfit choices. comb, hairspray. 


this is Pete moving out from behind the decks, behind the beats, to be the main act, first name on the bill... visually this is pete moving up a notch to be amongst the big boys of the big bad city. Pete doesn't fit into your typical hip hop mould, his eccentric and enthusiastic personality is reflected in the tunes he makes, so rather than typical hip hop styling of THE ENDS, this video puts Pete at the epicenter of Britain's financial powerhouse, Canary Wharf. This area powers the British economy and is one of the major players in international economics. These boys don't fuck about. They are nailing it. This is a metaphor for Pete stepping up to take his rightful place at the top table. Walking in the shoes of Dilla and Madlib. He doesn't fuck about. As the stock traders trade commodities around the world so does Pete now 'trade' and collaborate on an international level. But staying true to his ethos, this setting isn't about the gratuitous money and bling of mainstream HH. It isn't the champagne excess of banker's bonuses. It is about the bright lights of aspiration. It's about magnificently constructed buildings serving as metaphor for his carefully contrived beats. It is about finding beauty in industrial architectural lines of glass and steel which mirror the beauty of his electronically produced beats. 


In terms of the tune the beats are represented by the night, and the bleeps by the lights.


Locations:
Canary Warf (i think it's fair to say that the target market won't have ever been to this place or be familiar with 95% of shots... there is no other area like this in the country... and there is a lot of sculptures etc and lights left on and everythign s new and shiny and generally totally don which during the day is city boy suits dry but by night is a ghost town and is a mysterious place)

reflection in water
red photoshop
pete on his own on this
sat on the seat playing records with building's lights flashing
sat on floor with this DON reflection
forgot what this is already
different angle of the couple sculpture
YES YES YES - shapes, geometry, just colour them in for bleeps start here abstract and slowly pull back to reveal context... and vice versa
always got time for this sort of thing



- abstract glass and steel http://www.panoramio.com/photo/21548471
- amazing colours http://www.panoramio.com/photo/23514946
- colour wow http://www.panoramio.com/photo/46042957
- colour http://www.panoramio.com/photo/2608313


e.g
http://www.panoramio.com/photo/64138035
we would cut out each building. extend the background ones down to fill in the gaps. then we can fly towards them in 3D
and with http://www.panoramio.com/photo/61648948 we would colour each floor of lights in a different colour in time to the bleeps so the buildings dance


keep in mind the idea to go back not too late and get juxtapositions of local poor high rises in foreground with canary wharf in background

he uses the same words to mean different things showing the different ways language can be used. like this we use animated 2d still images as 3d moving footage to show how the same thing can be used in different ways
