Initial Ideas

Firstly i thought of the feedback from the band about what they thought of the song and what could work well, we discussed about filming outside thinking of this i looked at Paramore- Decode another music video which is set outside in a forest although the song has a different meaning it is again indie/rock and i thought it would be useful to look at other factors such as lighting and equipment used by the band such as amps etc.

Initial idea for a video outside
My first idea was set in a forest with two people (the couple breaking up), and use a lot of quick shots of the man and woman running in confusion trying to find their partner in the forest. The band would also feature performing in a wide space, very similar to Paramore’s Decode where a lot of swooping camera work is used  especially at 0.27 seconds that is a very good example of the type of camera work i thought would be ideal to show the distance between the couple. Although this video is also for a film the camera work of the band is still very well done and focused. One key feature i will take away from this video and consider is the lighting of the main singer Hayley Williams at 1.25 it is affective yet soft.
