Why we choose 'Uprising' by Muse


The reason why I choose the song, Muse ‘Uprising’ to create, produce and publish a music video to is because the song has deeper and wider issues than the face value of the lyrics and visual stimulate.  ‘Uprising’ is about class conflict in society and the inequalities communities face within a capitalist regime of greed and wealth. This links into the popular German Sociologist, Karl Marx, who developed the socio-political theory of Marxism. It refers to the inevitable uprising of the common people through a common cause to gain equality. Our ideas of using multiple shots of shopping centres and shops link into the capitalist regime and ideas and further emerges the audience to the concepts and ideas. Symbolism plays an important role in our music video and will help conceptualise big concepts.
