Intital Ideas

Our group includes Lucy, Lily and Dylan, and we are planning on doing the music video promotion with the muti-pac. We feel that this task will  let us use all the knowlegde and skills we gained last year and apply that to our music video as well as give us the opportunity to try and use new techniques such as green screening. In addition to this music videos have no fixed conventions which allows us to be totally imaginative. 

The music we choice to use in our music video is from a local band called, 'H-Eyes' who have agreed to us using their music. In addition to this they have also agreed to be filmed for the music video which will give us their us their opinion on the video and let them give their input through out filming.

The song we are doing is 'Falling Star' that fits into the 'Indie/ Indie Rock' genre which is becoming an increasingly popular genre with successful artists such as, Arctic Monkeys, Oasis and Radiohead

After listening to the lyrics a few times we decided the songs main focus of the video would be around drug as the corus says, 'Can't afford to feed your addiction'. With this we thought that we would have the band playing on top of a hill either during sunset or at night with some lighting and possibly some smoke affects. Then throughtout the song we would have flashbacks into the narritive of someone taking the drug heroin. In order for this to be effective and work well we decided that these flashbacks would be in black and white so that our audience would be able to distinguish between the story and the band.
