1. Music video idea
I think the song we’ve chosen ‘Do I Wanna Know’ by Arctic Monkeys should
have a 50/60s old fashion look which seems appropriate to the slow paced
romantic theme of the song.
This presentation will cover my own ideas for the music video.
2. Narrative
The music videos narrative will show the story of the singer trying to
be with the woman he wants and constantly bothering and offering to
be with her however gets unrequited attention.
3. Locations
As the song that I have chosen is in the Indie/Rock genre, I
considered locations that provided similar iconography to Rock
videos that I have watched.
For example, Inhaler by Foals, Somebody Told Me by The Killers
and Club Foot by Kasabian are good examples of this genre of
music.
There will be many locations in this music video, places such as
the Red Arches (Hampstead Heath) which will be for the
narrative.
The schools music room will be used for shots of the band
members performing instruments used in the song e.g bass
guitar, guitar.
Another location is a shot of the singer against a brick wall
which will be used when singing the verses.
Carnaby Street can also be used because of its old fashion 60s
look, which relates to the style I’m trying to create for this video.
4. Costumes
I would use this type of clothing and style to create the old
fashion feel because these are common stereotypes from that
era.
5. Visual style of the video
Color:
The colour for the video should be in black and white to
emphasize the look and feel of the video looking 60's and
old fashion.
Also might add flashbacks to the video which will have a
super 8 camera look from the 70s.
