Vivek Pun- Final Progress Report

Well we've finally completed the production and we felt we worked well as a team and hopefully this will be reflected on our grades. The production was a lot harder to make then we initially thought it would be, but we're all glad its finally done, because it was both something interesting and very educating for all of us. We finished it off a few days later then most off the other groups due to not finding the right voiceover, but we managed to get someone and we felt their voice fitted well with what was being shown on screen. I think everyone in the group would agree that we would do quite a few things differently to improve the production if we could do it again, but i still think the production is of a high standard and worthy of a good grade.

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.
