PITCH

Dirty Pretty Things- Kicks or consumptions

We chose this song because it was the only song that we felt we had a basic idea for. The song is fairly upbeat. The first idea we had involved the singer walking down the street. We decided not to stick with this due to the fact that we couldn't think of enough ideas to go with it.

We had another idea which we are pretty happy with and fell confident could make a good video.
Start off with morning shots of city (song has sounds of cars and horns). A man walks down the street and sees the band setting up their equipment (two main story lines, the band playing and also the man that walks down the road). The man would appear to be a nice guy but would carry on throughout the day being ignorant and being evil.The towards the end of the song you see the band packing away and the guy appears to be nice again.

The shots would start slower and they would become quicker and more cuts would be added when the song kicks in and the tempo is raised.


We looked at Arctic Monkeys 'Leave before the lights come on' track. The video gave us some ideas towards the shot types and shooting style hat we would be after. We also looked at The Verve 'bitterSweet Symphony' fr the same reasons.






We looked at 'She's an eyeful on the alley' which is a student video, which has the same basic concept as our idea. One of the reasons why is that it has the band playing and a separate storyline as well.



This is an image of Mill Road in Cambridge which is a possible idea for a location for our video. It looks urban and sort of run down.
