Plans for next week- Vivek Pun

For next week the group aims to get a substanial amount of footage, predominantly getting a range of interviews from non-asians to see what knowledge they have of the Genre. We also aim to get 1 or 2 interviews from older Indians who have knowledge on the history of Bhangra and its development. Daljit is also going to get footage of gigs and possibly some interviews with artists.

Introduction to our production- House of Bhangra- Vivek Pun

In this documentary i will be working in a group of 5, including, Satvinder, Daljit, Karandeep , Anamul and myself. We aim to provide the audience with information about the development of Bhangra, from merely being sung in the villages of Punjab India into becoming a mainstream Genre with rising popularity amongst a broader Western Audience. We aim to give a greater insight into the genre, through showing exclusive interviews with reknown artist aswell as providing inside information into Bhangra Gigs, aswell as interviews with DJ'S. The history of Bhangra will be covered ranging to the modern increase in popularity in Bhangra, examples include collaborations from PMC with Jayz. Most of the places where these interviews and the Gig footage, will be shot will be at Clubs entitled, New Light and Zoo Bar. Potentional Artists to be interviewed will include, Bobby Friction, Juggy D and DJ H from the Caliber Roadshow. All of the artists listed above are fairly well known to Bhangra listeners and Juggy D in particular is known across a more broader western audience. We also aim to interview Artists who have been involved in the Bhangra Movement from the start of its popularisation in the Western Area, such as DJ's in the Paragon Roadshow. Along with this interviews will be conducted with farily well known Dhol players as this is one of the most Key and well known instruments, associated with the Bhangra Genre.
