Initial Ideas

Narrative:

Setting - ‘dark forest’ gloomy, bitter crisp weather (Expected due to season ‘January’) effects will be depressing, dark and mellow – In comparison to the ‘image of beauty’ (A woman) she will be dressed in white clothing with connotations of reflective beauty, purity and virginity (Christian belief)

The band will have to dressed in ‘indie attire’ to help replicate the ‘Mumford & Sons’ look, guitars and piano would help make it look more authentic.




Storyline:

The band (Replica Mumford & Sons) will be lonely in a dark forest, cold bitter air surrounds them. Then there is a glimpse of beauty, a woman, dressed in white. The band is full of lust and yearning, there fuelled intent in meeting this girl seems to fulfil them, they walk through this dark wood, searching into the depths of it to find her. To fill in the music video, we’ll have to have shots of us ‘playing’ the instruments, whilst cutting through shots, of this ‘desire‘ for this woman, and also playing the instruments. This in total should help lead to quite an ambiguous setting, whilst making it look authentic and real with the introduction of us playing the instruments


Woman dressed in white symbolizes purity and beauty.

Foals created a video called 'Olympic Airways' which was set in a forest, with dark tints to it - - above (to the right) is a screen shot of it. This will be similair to a shot in our video, with the dark/indie tint.
