Basic pretense of music video (Posted by Louise)

Our video will include 2 separate narratives:



  • One of a boy who has a very bad day despite the fact that he does everything right and follows the rules, i.e, he goes to school whereas his friends bunk. He misses his bus, gets a low mark on his test paper (for copying? even though he didn't) which we'll make obvious with a close up. He is tripped over in the canteen, drops his phone, leaves wallet/money on the bus and gets something chucked at him in class but gets told off by the teacher when she turns around. Suddenly this character is seen in the gig which creates a temporal leap in time and shocks the audience, and at the end we see how he ended up there and show how he has flipped out following being sent out of the classroom.
  • Meanwhile, the friends of this boy have bunked school and are on the way to the same gig. The use of montage will be predominant as we depict these people having a good, care free time. We will perhaps show them doing things in the area of Camden as this fits the genre of this song/band well and is where the venue of the gig is. We will show these people perhaps trying on clothes in shops (with the owners permission) laughing often, generally messing around (e.g. on the lion statue in Camden and the scooter seats) We may show them relaxing in the park and maybe playing some football too and perhaps, if feasible, present some form of illegal drugs as this relates specifically to our reggae/ska genre. Other idea's include eating food from Camden market stalls and including LOTS of establishing shots of Camden and the different people there. We may include other things as and when we actually film this part. Eventually this group end up at the gig and meet the boy who went to school.
  • Cutting between the two will be the band performing at the gig which presents another temporal leap.
PLANNING PROOF...
