Thinking

I do it on occasion!!

Been looking into a few different songs, and doing some brainstorming.

My first idea is based on the song "Divided" - By Tegan and Sara. (There's actually quite a few songs by them I'm thinking about - but I'm trying to get some variety in my ideas!)



If I choose to do this song, I'd definitely have a narrative based video, centred around the lyrics. My idea is currently to have the whole video centred around one girl, and as the song is about relationships, and feeling "divided", I was going to centre the video around a story of her and a guy.

I'm avoiding having any performance aspect in the video, as I have nobody to perform it. I'm thinking about having a concept aspect. I'll be uploading the photo's later of what I'm talking about, but basically the idea is that when the central girl (and I have a volunteer already) is feeling "divided", she'll have half her face made up, and a "divided" looking outfit.

It might work! Stranger things have happened =)

  1. any further thoughts on this, jo? be wary with the slower, even paced, acoustic and more pensive songs that you have enough narrative clout to keep the audience engaged - especially if you are plaaning no performance sequences to break it up.
