Initial Ideas
From listening again and again to the lyrics of our song, we felt that there was a strong narrative throughout. Our initial idea was to have a flash back of the main character, to when she was younger. She see's her parents fighting and breaking up. This burns into her mind, that she would never be able to find true love. We refined this idea, and instead of having a clip of them fighting, we would use stop motion in the form of a childs drawing to emphasise how this fighting had an effect on her. The image will then zoom out to a video of her holding the pictures in a crowded high street with everyone moving quickly around her. We thought this would be an appropriate use of the green screen. Later on we came up with the idea that she would be recording in a studio at the beginning and as soon as she starts to sing the song, her flashback occurs. There will be constant referance and cuts back to the recording studio throughout the song. For more detailed information on our ideas, see our next blog ( Pitch )

You could display this more creatively eg scan in a mind map or a video of your group discussing your ideas.
ReplyDeleteYour pitch post is not published so I can't comment on that at this stage. Without that, at this stage you are working at a C grade. You need more detail and you should display your work in more diverse ways. Having said that, there is some really good work here eg the video commentaries.
