Space Bound - Music Video Narrative Concept
19.11.16
Written by Avinash Navani
Narrative Element #1
An ambiguous figure, the rapper, settles down in an park environment in
which he sees something that catches his eye…
Narrative Element #2
The Rapper and a Woman (presumably his girlfriend) engage in a fight
following an undisclosed argument. The Rapper, enraged, starts chucking
items to the floor, while the woman prompts him to stop; however, the
Rapper has clearly entered a ‘limbo’ in which his mind promotes anger.
The woman pleads for him to stop, but that only agitates him to push her
away to the wall to remove her grip form his arm. The woman starts to
weep and the rapper stops his massacre, understanding the true extent of
his actions and manages to reveal a forgiving face. He attempts to
approach her to apologise, but she gestures at him to stay away feeling
threatened by his presence.
Narrative Element #3
After a quick time-lapse, transitioning from the chorus to the second
verse, we see the Rapper, finding a note in which a letter from his
girlfriend claims she’s leaving him. He’s heart broken.
He begins his pursuit to win her affection again: he begs for forgiveness
on Facebook, but she has blocked him; he goes to her mother’s old address
to find the house vacant.
Narrative Element #4
After a year and six months, the rapper receives a message from her on
Facebook, asking if he wants to meet. The rapper is completely elated by
this, affirming her invitation.
The two of them meet in a local area, where the rapper expresses his
feelings of guilt and remorse regarding his anti-sentiments towards her.
The woman reveals that she’s with someone new and that she’s come to find
solace, and move on with her life, but the only way to was to confront
the Rapper. She walks away, however the Rapper catches her and attacks
her. From out of nowhere, another man (presumably the Woman’s new
Boyfriend) attacks the rapper, leaving him on the ground. They leave.
When the rapper goes back to his home, enraged, and enters the kitchen.
There he finds a gun. As images of the woman flash before his eyes, the
rapper puts a gun on his temple and fires, dying in the process.
The woman feels like something has happened, but she dismisses it.
Narrative Element #5
We’re back at the park atmosphere (Narrative element #1), where the
rapper looks on to see the Woman, herself. The rapper recognises her and
smiles… and continues to approach her, so that they can have their love
in the afterlife. The afterlife is a representation of the Rapper’s
interpretation of the afterlife, so while the woman is not actually dead.
The Rapper has come to this ‘heaven’ in which his soul carries on with
another soul that takes the shape of the woman the Rapper loved the most,
the Woman.
