Builing a Narrative

Today we looked at the lyrics and decided the narrative of our music video. we discussed what will be shown on each line.  We decided that we would need 7 people to shoot.

Our group watched this music video to look at the different camera angles and shot types http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbygUxEjnos
we decided that we want to include as many different angles and shots as possible.

Creative Idea's

Today we where discussing and chosing whether we where interested in music video or film narrative. we decided we wanted to produce a music video. We also chose our song which is called The Rasmus 'Heavy'
Here are the lyrics of our song
Heavy
They built you a cage of diamonds and gold
most beautiful place for you to grow old
They brought you the moon and served you the lie
and all that you wanted was freedom to fly
It’s heavy
but you are not the only one
who’s tired of giving
afraid of the oblivion
Could it be that your curse is a bliss?
But the crown on your head never felt this heavy
Harness your rage, take a leap of faith
to claim back you soul before it’s too late
Show them no fear, sing them goodbye
Leave all but you heart and you’re free to fly
It’s heavy
but you are not the only one
who’s tired of giving
afraid of the oblivion
Could it be that your curse is a bliss?
But the weight of the world never felt this heavy
Take the evident leap of faith
Don’t you be afraid
It’s heavy
but you are not the only one
who’s tired of giving
afraid of the oblivion
Could it be that your curse is a bliss?
But the cross that you bear never felt this heavy
You are not the only one
who’s tired of living
afraid of the oblivion
Cause the crown on your head, the smile that you wear
the cross that you bear never felt this heavy
The crown on your head never felt this
heavy
