This document summarizes a music video production plan for the band Attack Promo's song "1916". It outlines the concept, locations, costumes, equipment, and budget needed. The concept follows band members retracing their ancestors' footsteps during WWI. Shooting will take place at Imperial War Museum, HMS Belfast, France, and Surrey and include documentary, performance, and narrative elements. The total budget is estimated at £31,760.60.
3. The Audience
• The current fan base are males and females who
like metal, rock and indie and aged between 18-35
but we are going to expand into newer audiences.
Unique opportunity: The BBC have
been informed of our music video
and have asked for the music video to
be shown as long as it hasn’t got and
offensive or adult lyrics or images as
well as a interview.
This unique occurrence will create a
large outlet as well as grab a large
amount of new fans
5. Previous Ideas
• Art Of War: Animated, Surrealist Music video
following cartoon versions of the band members as
the go through the literal war machine this would
also include performance footage as well as iconic
posters of the era
• The live performance: We also considered
filming the band play live during a concert taking
place near a location that would have relevance to
the WW I. this is our back up idea that costs less
and
6. Final Idea
• (Documentary, Backstage, Journey,
Performance, narrative)
• Documentary/ Backstage/ Journey: we follow
the band members in real life as they follow in
the foot steps of their ancestors
• Performance/ Narrative: During parts of the
song we cut to the band members playing
their instruments dressed as their ancestors
