Pitch - Write Up

1. (Myself) Introduce our chosen track:-'What would you do' by Bastille.

2. (Esther) Style of music video:

  • Indie/Pop genre.
  • The style of the video will be an insiders look on the girls life, so the camera shots will be quite soft but will look as if they follow her around.
  • Quite a slow moving, sad music video. We don't want it to be very explicit even with the mature themes. 
3. (Anna) Inspirations/Inter textual references:
  • 'The A Team' by Ed Sheeran. This video has inspired us within cinematography and the themes shown in the video. We are planning on having a black and white filter over the shots of the girl in the streets because it makes her seem more vulnerable.  
  • 'Greek Tragedy' by The Wombats. At the beginning of the music video it cuts to the beat and rhythm of the music. It is very similar to how we are planning on cutting our clips at the beginning of the music video, it creates a good, dramatic start to the music video. 
  • 'Swimming pools' by Kendrick Lamar. We used this video when we were doing our test shots. It gave us inspiration for the party scene because of the slo-mo shots and the lighting. 
4. (Myself) Target Audience:
  • Our target audience is young adults/teens. The themes in the video are quite mature, so I think that our target audience can't be too young because it would be inappropriate for younger children. 
5. (Esther) Star Image: 
  • The Star image in our music video will be the male actor. He will be dressed in a typical boy band costume (white t-shirt, jeans, boots and a leather jacket). 
6. (Anna) Narrative:
  • The narrative element to the video is about a girl who is homeless and has a son that she needs to care for, she has to resort to prostitution to be able to get money for him. The main singer will be her support system and will try to get her onto the right track. 
7. (Myself) Representations:
  • The representations will show how hard her life is on the streets looking in on the world.
