3. Lyrics
Take me to the docks, there's a ship without a name
It is sailing to the middle of the sea
The water there is deeper than anything you've ever seen
...Jump right in and swim until you freeze
I will remember your face
'Cause I am still in love with that place
But when the stars are the only things we share
Will you be there?
Money came like rain to your hands while you were waiting
For that cold long promise to appear
People in the churches started singing above their hands
They say "My God is a good God and he cares"
I will remember your face
'Cause I am still in love with that place
When the stars are the only things we share
Will you be there?
I've got a plan
I've got an atlas in my hands
I'm gonna turn when I listen to the lessons that I've learned

Jake Faulkner. His be of quite dark,
role in the music including brown and
video will be an greens. This will be
actor in the video done purposely to
and will not be reflect moods once
playing as the again.
artist.
His role
throughout the
video will consist
of an upset boy in
love. His emotions
will reflect those of
someone who is
distraught and
upset.

5. Location
• My ideal location for the video shoot would be in sand
dunes and amongst a coast. Due to the area that I live in
this is impossible so as an alternative idea it will be
based in a forest like setting.
• The whole video is based around nature.
• The weather in some shots will be sunny and in others
autumn but it will come across as the video is in one day.
• Will be set in a forest like destination known as
‘Knypersley Pool’ in an Autumn theme to support the
idea of pathetic fallacy and weather reflecting emotions.
• Another scene on the video will be crossing across
water and skipping stones.
• Walking through grass and other field locations.

6. Camera Shots
Main shots will consist of:
- Close ups, to define the actors emotions
- Wide shots, to include pathetic fallacy
- Tracking and panning, this is too show the background
and the loneliness of the character.
- Slow Motion, to express passion and love.
- Long Shots to emphasise the character o n his own.
- I will also use a sped up shot of perhaps the character
walking to show contrast in emotions and actions.
- I wish to use many effects such as sepia and black and
white as well as a traditional effects.
