Pitch for Media A2

1. Music Video Pitch
Rosie Alexander, Sarah Glendinning & Liam Gunning

2. Our song
 We have chosen the song ‘AKA… Broken Arrow’ by
Noel Gallagher’s high flying birds
 We have chosen this song because there are many
ways you could interpret it.
 We have chosen to portray the song as the lead
singers battle with drugs.
 We have chosen to have a male and female as the
main people in the video, the storyline revolving
around the man. The man will also be the lead
singer of the band as there is a lot of use of personal
pronouns throughout the song.

3. Lyrics
 Leave me peace I'm on the side of the angels
If I die in a dream then
Let me live my life
 But all the lies they have told me
They make me wanna shiver
And I'm lost and I'm lonely
And that's not gunna ease my troubled mind
 We have interpreted ‘lies’ - referring to the hallucinations he
experiences and ‘shiver’ as his fear from what he see’s.
 The drugs have made his mind troubled, ‘ Leave me in peace I’m on
the side of the angels’ - he would rather use than have to face up to
his problems and what the real world is like.
 ‘If I die in a dream, then let me live my life’ – hints that if what he’s
seeing isn’t true that he is happy to live there anyway.
 ‘I’m lost and I’m lonely’ – he’s left behind the world he once knew,
he’s been left alone to deal with his problems.

4. Ideas for shots
 POV – show the world through his eyes
 Close up – expressions
 Jump cuts – set pace & create a sense of chaos
 Lighting – Different lighting for the different points of
view

5. Locations & costumes
 Costumes –
- Male/ Lead singer– Casual clothes, jeans, jacket etc.
- Female – In white, old dress, worn in
- The outfits worn by both characters will contrast
each other
 Locations
