ROUGH MUSIC VIDEO PLAN

The music video is based around the story of working and the day to day same old which becomes boring and tedious. It shows someone working repeatedly and having the same routine. This links with the lyrics "being a slave to money, then you die".
The first shot will be of clouds/sunset/field. There will then be a cut after the instrumental to a cup of steaming tea, this will be a close up. There will then be another cut to a person eating toast, eating breakfast before work, there will then be another cut. There will be continuous cuts to different activities people make before work. It will ten show somebody at work and cuts showing the clock and the time they are at work for. This will then be repeated till the end of the song showing the repetition of life. Throughout this there will be performance shots of the artist which we found from our questionnaire performance is popular so we need to include this.

CASTING DIFFICULTIES

After looking at a wide variety of actors we have decided that a female actor would be the most suitable for our music video. This decision did cause some difficulties for us though as the song is sang by a man which meant we needed to find a different version of 'Bitter Sweet Symphony' in order for our video to be realistic. It took a long time to find a suitable contender but we have found a version we feel fits our actress and music video well.
