Iconography

These are two of the main props we will use in our music video.
These props will feature during the main rap at the end. the rolex signifies the artists money and portrays power, with the rolex being gold its a bold colour and will catch the auddiences attention.
The gold chain implifies the above aspects. we are portraying a different take on rap by not seeing women as a target but we are following the conventions of using gold chains and gold watches which show the artists wealth. Also from research our target audience do want to see all this gold.
