The document outlines initial ideas for a music video called "The Kids Don't Wanna Come Home". It will have a vintage concept and take place in a teenager's bedroom, dining room, roads/forest, and house. The main actor will be 16-18 years old to match the target audience. There will also be 2-3 other kids and parents portrayed. The video will use a vintage color palette and costumes from the 80s-00s to convey its message about various issues faced by this generation that cause kids to not want to return home. Technical elements like close-ups, long shots, and jump cuts will be used to tell the narrative.

Target audiences were around that age as well. It is good when the audiences relates to the
Artist which makes more connection with them. And also the song was about kids/teenager.
-Two or more kids
The song title “Kids” is in plural form, the video and the lyrics should compelement and visualize
the meaning of the song.

The narrative of my video will tackle and convey this generation’s issues. This will be a

different reasons of the kids why they don’t wanna come home.
