Similar Music Video to Ours

The Script + William - Hall of Fame



The Performance in this video is set in a warehouse, which is where we will set ours, they are singng and also the instruments in the warehoue as well, we like this idea and so we think we will use it, i have a warehouse tat we can use but we will have to stop production for a day so we can use the warehouse as it is anactive site, we will have to wear hi -viz vests.

The video Hall of fame is two differant storeys of a boy and girl, the lad want to be a boxer and the girl wants to be balet dancerm they both achieve what they want although they both have difficulties, but they over come them and both  do well. the stroey follows them through their hardship and training waiting for the big day. The lights they use are normal strobes and over head lights although i think that there will be more lights tat you can see in the video.

The Locations


 
 
This is our location for our performance, this is a warehouse that is used for erecting boxes for supermarkets, the boxes are used for fruit and veg, Plasto-Sac East sell boxes to many local business in the area, as is in Lincolnshire the need for boxes for the fresh produce is high. There are 3 parts to the building, The Offices, The Production Area and The Storage Facility (Warehouse). We will film in The Production Area, luckily the business will stop production for us to film in the area. The Warehouse is located in Bicker, Lincolnshire.
 

This is the location of the narrative will take place here at 30 Swallow Hill, we will film inside as that is where we want it to be like he is still with her in the house. This house is a new build with some very modern features, a typical house that you could rent as a young couple. we will film in the bathroom mirror and in the bedroom and also we will film a hand held bit of Hannah and Kingston fooling about on the sofa. The singing in the kitchen scene will also be added, we may also add a a shot outside fo the window in the video as well.

Who is Responsible for What

Kingston

Kingston is in the music video and so his task is to learn the lyrics , he also has to put on a  convincing performance to look like he is actually singing the song and not miming it. Kingston had to wear Indi clothing and suit his look to that of the Indi genre.

Hannah

Hannah task is to film in the warehouse and use a verity of shot types the make the music video more enguaging to the audinece.  Hannah is filming the performance with sonys in the warehouse. Hannah will be in the promo on the second day and so she also will have to wear Indi clothing and will suit herself to that style.

Jessica

Jesscia task is to think of new and exciting ideas we could add into the video to make the music promo more aestheticaly pleasing. Jess is head of planning and is looking for the mis-en-scene and wherethe position of the light could be.


Henry

I am the location mananger and chose the places that we are going to film, luckly I had a contact who has a warehouse, production was stopped for the day so we could film our music video. I also filmed with the HD SLR camera on tuesday when we concentrated on the narrative. I will take photos on monday and help with lighting.

Deconstruction of 'I never get lost exept by your side'

Lyrics

Slow Me Down, Change My Ways Tonight or is it all too late. How could you keep those lying eyes, babe when you couldn’t hide away, Hide away oh I’m wide awake, wide awake oh I’m trying to say, Trying to say all the words that are in my mind today
 
Oh won’t you wait for a minute cos my heart isn’t in it today, Well I’ve tried and I’ve tried but there’s nothing left for you To say to me, I’ve been falling at your feet now I’m crawling. Can’t you see you’ve been holding me back for too long now? Whoa I’ve tried for you.Whoa never good enough but nothings for you.
 
Oh think your better than oh you think you’re better than me when you cheat and lie on, no I never did oh you no I never could see when you cheat and lie on me.
 
Oh wont you wait for a minute cos my heart isn’t in it today, Well I’ve tried and I’ve tried but there’s nothing left for you To say to me, I’ve been falling at your feet now I’m crawling Can’t you see you’ve been holding me back for too long now
 
Oh think your better than oh you think you’re better than me When you cheat and lie on, No I never did oh you know I never could see When you cheat and lie on. Think your better than oh you think you’re better than me When you cheat and lie on, No I never did oh you know I never could see When you cheat and lie on me.
 
Now my heart beats clear when you cheat and lie on me
When you cheat and lie onnn
 
 
 
 
The Lyrics seem to connote that a woman has left a man for someone else and that she has lied to him about certain factors of the relationship. perhaps it could also mean that she has cheated on him several times but now he has given up and is leaveing her for good. the fact that he repeats the stanzas mean that she could have been a repete offender of cheating.

The Location of the Performance

We had a warehouse that were allowed too use and so as a group we decided to film in there. There was minimal amout of staff in on that day and so we could film without too much inconvienance to the workers. We found a suitable wall with breese blocks as the background, it did look like the location for the pretenders video by the Foo Fighters.


As you can see here this is the breeze block background that we were using.

The Band that we are Studying

This is the band that we are using the song of, they are called 4 Kicks and they are locaated in Scunthorpe and Doncaster region which also will suit our singer as our dialect in Bourne is not too far from the dialect of that of Scunthrope.


The artist that insipred us

 
 
This is Taylor Swifts video called  'We are never getting back together' we like this video as it was performance while she was singin the song, we liked this as we feel we could use this in our video,
