1. Song choice
• Song: Frank ocean – Voodoo ( a short somber song, originally
about the trials of relationships and family, as well as dealing
with the problems of the world)
• Brief Description of video: based on the good and bad side of
a couple, the focus will be of a girl(dressed in all black) who is
into ‘witchcraft’ and she enchants a boy who represents
‘good’(dressed in all white) , in the end she gets what she
wants and they walk off into the sunset together.
• He ends up reflecting her bad qualities and where he was
good before he now wears all black to signify the change in his
character.
2. Other features
• Location: outside in a forest, to show the beauty of nature
with contrast to her bad intentions.
• Focus on good and bad/yin and yang (black and white
imagery)
• Frank Ocean has a distinctive ‘African American’ voice so my
performer/lip syncer will be black
• The song is 1:38 seconds long.
• Candles will be featured throughout the scenes (not the only
form of lighting) to create an atmospheric mise en scene
3. …
• Target audience: Everyone aged 16/20
• Narrative based video with some performance(when the
performer is lip syncing)
• Frank Ocean is an established artist so the target audience for
my music video will be aimed at his fan base that he has
created already=16/20
4. VOODOO

Roman Catholic ritual with traditional African
