The document outlines initial ideas for a music video for the song "Follow Me" by Uncle Kracker. The proposed video would tell the story of a couple growing old together from childhood to old age using different actors to portray the couple at various ages. Rather than using the original artist, the creator wants to feature a different singer performing the song. The goal is to create a unique video that shows an enduring relationship in a way that is different from the original music video for the song.
2. The song I have chosen is Follow Me by Uncle Kracker. I have spent much time listening to the
lyrics and understanding my own interpretation of the song. I interpret the song to show how
two people have grown up together and formed a relationship. This shows that all they need is
each other. My ideas for this video are completely different to the original music video, therefore
my video will not be seen as plagiarism.

3. Initial Idea
My initial idea for this music video is to create a story showing a couple who start as
friends then form a relationship and grow old together, To do this I am thinking of using a
range of people at different ages. For example, I would use two people at 8 years of age,
two people at 17 years and so on up until the age of 96. I am looking to use 5 different
ages starting from young to old. My idea is to show each couple spending time together,.
This will possibly include the children being friends and playing together then travel
through to the couple going on dates and then being older. I will include different locations
for each generation to show the adventures they have together and their journey of
finding themselves.
4. Artist?
I would like to have someone to sing the song instead of using the original artist. This is so I
can show that my music video will be unique and different to the original. I will show the
artists performance in the video but will mainly show the story of the forever lasting
relationship.
