Music Video Idea

When deciding on the narrative of our music video, we wanted to have a twist so it was less predictable.

Eventually we decided in the main narrative of the play would be set in an old-style exam classroom, and it would be a story about a boy and girl's relationship, which begins in the classroom. The narrative continues and the audience see them at a gig, where they appear to be having an argument, the girl walks off and the boy attempts to follow but when he next see's her she seems to be kissing/flirting with some other boy; however they are just good friends and she's talking to him because she's upset, but her boyfriend interprets it differently and the audience watch the girl try and make amends with her boyfriend as she has noticed that he has seen her and her friend; he doesn't seem to want to and walks off down the street with her watching after her.

We also decided in order to keep the audience engaged, we would include a performance aspect to the video. The beginning of the music video is being shot in a rehearsal room and there will be close-up shots of an amp being plugged in, drum sticks being picked up, a guitar being plugged in and a microphone being placed in the holder, this is to give the impression that the band are setting up.
We're planning to film a crowd at a gig, again to give the impression that the band are playing, however these shots will depend on the lighting and the whole tone of the video - we may decide to have a smaller crowd at a local gig because the lighting is better as the whole tone of the gig will be different.
