This image from one step beyond by madness has some mayjor signifiers of the Ska genre such as the phone boxes which conote england we also see this in british programes such as Doctor Who and This Is England 86. The costume of the man in the image is plane black suit which is used alot in other Ska music videos, we also use this in our music video. The man in the image is skanking which is a dance move invented by madness which was done at all Ska gigs in the 80's and early to mid 90's but these days you only see it done by the old Ska fans.

This is what would be associated with SKA music videos. A bleak basement with grafiti on the wall this makes it look unprofessional, which is what the Ska society like about the genre. Most Ska bands are un signed or not well known they like being individual.

Costume: Buttoned up check shirt, jacket and turned up jeans.

This is Ben lambert one of our actors he is also part of our media group. Costume: Trilbe hat, braces, fred perry top and army boots.

Shot Ideas

I took these images off the music video "Oh No" by Marina and the Diamondsand these are relevant to our idea with the monopoly money and the image of the camera under the glass is an idea we may use in our music video. We are planning to do money dropping out of or on top of an umbrella this goes with the title of our track which is money grabber.
