2. The Song…
The song is called “Broken
Mirrors” and is the eighth track
on Rise Against fifth album
“Endgame”
It’s fast paced, loud, with an
aggressive tone and its just
under four minutes. This would
allow us to us to use lots of fast
takes throughout the song.
3. Why this song?
We both agreed on using
the song because we like
that genre of music and
have seen numerous
videos in the best with
intriguing narrative and an
entertaining performance
aspect by the band.
We chose 3 other song
ideas which were
• Rise Against –
Injection
• Royal Blood – Out of
the Black
• Guns ‘N’ Roses –
WeN digidhntr’ati npick
any of the other
songs because
we felt that we
could be more
creative with the
narrative of the
4. Our Narrative…
The overall narrative
is about reflecting on
the past, accepting
the present and
visualising the future.
A guy who
visualises his past,
present and future
selves in three
different mirrors.
5. Band details
Band name. we
each went away
and came up with
5 band names
each to choose
from. But in the
end we went with
So far we have one person
confirmed to be the drummer,
and possibly one person for
the lead guitar, also if we cant
find anyone else, one of us will
be the singer
6. Shots
We will be using a variety of fast paced takes.
Including
• Close ups
• Mid shots
• Group shots
• Focusing on instruments
• Tracking
• Over the shoulder
• Low angle for the band
• High angle for the narrative
7. Location(s)
• Dark drab empty
space, such as a
garage
• Possibly
abandoned
buildings, to cause
mayhem, capable
of trashing
• We could use a
forest also,
because it’s
isolated and
dreary, and fits
8. Costumes
For the band, we were thinking:
• generally drab clothing,
• no nonsense clothing,
• possibly include band t-shirts
• , as well as dark jeans
For the narrative:
• For the main character we would use, angst dark
clothes to symbolise his past self
• For his present self, we would use generic clothes, fairly
mundane
• For his future, we would star with a black morph suit, to
symbolise the unknown future
• Also a suit, dirty clothes to show his possible demise or
his possible success
9. Performance
• Lead singer
• Guitarist
• Drummer
• Bass player
We will use well
organised friends, who
can play the
instruments
It will be filmed in the drama
hall, possibly the forest and
the garage
10. Props
We will use:
• A guitar
• A bass guitar
• Drum set
• Microphone
• Costumes
We were mainly thinking simplistic,
when it comes to our overall mise en
scene
11. Motifs
We were thinking of including a
band logo, as well bright lights for
certain elements of the narrative,
to show certain characters in
certain lights, throughout
