Our music video will feature the song "Somebody Told Me" by the popular indie/rock band The Killers. We chose this song because our research found The Killers to be many indie/rock fans' favorite band. The video will show the band performing on stage, intercut with cutaway scenes of them backstage, signing autographs, and listening to music. We plan to use varied camera shots, editing techniques, clothing, and stage lighting to match the indie/rock genre and keep viewers engaged.

1. Pitch
Our music video is for the indie/rock genre and
will most interest the audience who enjoy this music
genre. The song we are doing is ‘Somebody Told Me’
by ‘The Killers’ that is a very popular song in this
genre. We chose this song because when we did our
questionnaire we asked people who liked indie/rock
music what their favourite band was and a lot of
people said ‘The Killers’ so we decided to do a song by
them. We chose ‘Somebody Told Me’ because it is an
upbeat song and is catchy.
We decided to make a music video where the
band is performing the song on a stage, and we are
going to have cutaway scenes of the bands in different
situations including; backstage, signing autographs
and listening to a song. We have planned to use a
wide variety of camera shots and angles and a lot of
editing techniques, we decided to do this to keep the
video fresh and to stop the audience from becoming
bored. The clothing we are wearing will match the
indie/rock genre and the props being used will fuel
this convention e.g. microphones, guitars and drums.
We will most likely use the lights on the stage for the
video to make some atmosphere as if it is a real stage.
