Initial ideas for music video

Second Idea

TRACK = Lights out, Words Gone 
ARTIST = Bombay Bicycle Club

Star Image

Band = English Indie Rock band 
Target audience = Young adults and teenagers
  • Music is very meaningful and real ---> therefore it can be presented artistically 
  • Music has lots of meanings ---> can sound very happy but melancholic lyrics
  • Attracts a wide audience of boys and girls ---> useful for promotion and music video  


Treatment for music video 

  • Artist's singing in microphones (old fashioned ones)
  • Weird effects:  blurs, merging clips, mirroring clips
  • Cutting to other people dancing: the band as well as the woman (cutting to the beat?)
  • Could use green screen
  • Lots of echoes in the song ---> can show this through effects
  • 'my heart' 'breaking' ---> can show animation, such as a simple heart literally be broken in half (very simple animation)
  • Cutting to band playing instruments while singer is performing
  • Man is heartbroken and she wants to be free?  Lots of meanings to this song, which is useful as you can present it in many ways.
  • Could use a glass window (big sheet of glass) to separate the boy and girl ---> one of them could smash it at one point
  • Sounds in this song can be represented a lot
