Initial Group ideas

As a group we looked through everyone's ideas and decided which ones we thought would work the best and were the most interesting. We decided on the following as some preliminary ideas to adjust and work on;

• Show the band playing a gig, they have only one fan watching them at the moment (this would all be shown in black and white) the band wish that they have more fans. This wish is granted and they end up with a huge fan base who they then go to play for in a different venue (this part would be filmed in colour). The fans however all start to become nightmarish and turn into monsters and keep the band kidnapped, (the footage at this point goes back into black and white). The bands one fan from the beginning then comes into the venue and saves them and the footage goes back into being in colour, the band return to their original venue and play for their original fan.
• Colours- Great British flag
• Band are inside an elevator/lift- make it look like its lifting off- lots of colour.
• Similar to above with a narrative about escapism.
• Green screen- show images of space behind the band as they perform
• Band are performing in front of a small community- narrative shots- showing band and good community spirit, they re doing good deeds within the community picking up litter helping those in need etc.
• Intercut performance shots with shots showing the outside of a lift with muffled sounds of performance from the band.
• Show parts filmed at different speeds- band come together and start playing together at the same time/speed- this causes the surroundings to become sped up/showed down- they go unnoticed as this happens.
• Juxtapose- lead singer shown in the same way as a typical pop artist (beauty shots etc) while the rest of the bandare typically 'indie' in their interpretation. The rest of the band work together and take the lead aside and make him into an indie singer.
• Each member of the band is assigned a colour, as they travel through areas they bring that colour to life within the area, when they meet up and start playing to get her their colours are spread all over and everything is returned into being colourful rather than greyscale/black and white.
• The lead singer is seeing things and thinks that he is hallucinating everyone else believes so too however by the end of the video he finds them and realises that they are real.
• Colour focus.
