historical, social and culture of music videos - Damien Marley

Road to zion- Damian Marley



For the context of the music video we see how innocent bystanders get caught up in crime and as we witness a journey to for the persona. The themes we see the music video getting across to its audiences is how authorities abuse their power this can be shown through editing as we see a darker setting within the prison cells on the other hand a lighter setting for the "free" policemen. The use of the continuity editing where we get the full story of the personas walk represent the journey he's on. Before jump cuts when the singer changes so does the shot to a scene of prison to represent how black people are wrongly put and treated in prison through his lyrics.
