Developing our Concept

Whilst storyboarding with my group, we thought of a main narrative for our music video. Although we don't want this narrative to completely dominate the entire film, we want our audience to know roughly want the song is about and how we are portraying it. As the song we have chosen suggests, it is about LOVE. We are going to represent this love in a damaged way, involving both a main boy and girl.
This love they previously had will be displayed in flashbacks of them together, mostly sad times yet happy times too, perhaps. These flashbacks will be very quick and will only be at the starting point of the song. As the lyrics state, freedom of the girl is going to be shown - where she goes out with her friends, 'forgets' the boy and generally enters her new single life. 
                                       

The character of the male, however, will be portrayed as a control-freak who begins to obsess over her after their break-up, where we will use pinhole shots and represent him as a moody, depressive person who cannot deal with his former girlfriend's new found freedom. 
                                 

Storyboard's Done!

Here we have one page of our storyboard - we tried to make ours as detailed as possible so we could know EXACTLY what to shoot on the day. We have explained what location, what shot type and the details of what we would need at the time. This is a good outline to go by, even if we do alter or change some of it along the way.
