2. What’s going to happen in video
• Man reflects on his past relationship with his
ex. He’s gets upset just of the fought that he
isn't with her anymore. He’s also full of regret
for his actions so you’ll see him upset and
alone through out the video. He has
flashbacks of his time with ex at some stages
of the video. Even when he’s surrounded by
people he is friends with, he’s depressed. This
is the basis of my video. Throughout the
video, the video and lyrics will match up.
3. Some locations of video
• On an empty street is one location to show
that the main performer is alone etc.
• In a house and on the streets for when the
main performer is reminiscing on the times
that he had with his ex. Also for this shopping
centres etc.
• Bedroom for when main performer when he is
thinking about his past.
• Club/party
• And other places
4. Actors/Actresses/PerformersCostumes
• One person being the performer of the song (lip syncing) this
person is also the main person of the narrative. Need a female
to play main performers ex in the video. Also need a couple of
extra people for the narrative for certain parts of the song
such as main performers friends and people in a party (will
make sense once the video has been made as to why I need
friends and people in a party). Also need a male actor to play
the girls current partner. (showing that she’s moved on, so
video matches lyrics).
• The costumes are casual everyday clothes, this is appropriate
for the video because the meaning of the lyrics can relate to
many peoples situation. So clothes that is considered normal
to the majority of people is what should be worn. Basically
nothing out of the ordinary and nothing funky.
5. Visual style
• Many shot types will be used. For when the
performer is lip syncing, there will be lots of
close ups to show the performers facial
expression. Throughout the video, his facial
expression will be sad/depressed/upset etc.
Birds eye view/extreme long shot etc to
establish the locations. Also other shots will
be used. I think black and white colour effect
will be appropriate for some parts of the
video. Also a visual blur will be used
sometimes as an effect.
6. Matching video to lyrics
• This is the main and most important aspect of the
video. It will need to match the lyrics. I will be
doing this by, for example, for when the lyric ‘’If
you ever loved somebody put your hands up’’ is
being heard, the visuals could be a bunch of 2030 people putting their hands up in the air,
people from all different backgrounds and
looking at he camera whilst the camera is at a
long shot. This example could be used in the
video.
