2. Story
For our video’s narrative we would want to communicate feelings of
community through music. We would want our story to focus around a
record shop, preferably a vintage one in tough times financially. We would
want to start the video with officials placing an eviction notice on the door
of the shop. After they leave we would want a group of young people,
dressed with their own individual styles, including members of the band, to
approach the shop, only to see the eviction notice.
3. After the youths notice that the record shop is under eviction, their upset and
distress would be shown in a way that reflects the possible loss of individuality
through their music. The band would then be shown playing the song, only to
cut back to the youths emptying their pockets and wallets for any money that
could be put towards the shop. They would then set up a makeshift stage
outside the shop and a handful of them would play the song that is already
playing. As they play more and more people become interested and stop to
watch the performance and donate money. As the song draws to a close, they
would count and collect all the money and set the eviction notice on fire.
4. Costume
We would want individuality to be portrayed heavily throughout the video,
and one way we could portray this would be through the costumes. We
would want every character dressed differently, in keeping with a different
style or fashion.
