DRAWING BOARD.

The band "FIGHT STAR" FOR AN IDEA?

I have been thinking of more ideas, brainstorming and thinking of the right song

i want to create a music video for.

I know however if this was for real i would be unable to choose the song for the music video.

As the job would be to create a music video for the song thrown at you. Anyway i thought of some more ideas that i might as well blog for your knowledge.

So i have thinking of ideas, i came up with the idea of using 'floods' by Fight star as a backing song (well the song for the music video). I am to yet consider whether in fact i want to use this song. the beginning of the song uses key sounds from a piano, i thought this somehow resembles the movement of a ballerina, then on the 10Th second the piano switches to a heavy loaded rhythm of beats and guitar. this is pretty good timing as i thought as the ballerina dances away innocently to the piano, a predator or a group of predators like demons or something jumps out on that exact moment the music switches.

The 'demons' or predators could be male or female with masks on. i was thinking like panic at the disco where particularly they have masked people dancing around, i thought this would look quite cool and ironically fit with the ballerina, also if the 'demons' or masked predators were male this would suggest a sexual nature, like men searching for this one woman.

And particularly a 'beauty'. and as the female is seen as a ballerina this could highlight a stereotype of females, girl, good posture 'soft' etc etc . this is just an idea, though i don't quite no what else i could film apart from the beginning bit. though i have done some sketches of possible scenes and shots.

what could be included in this music video?

i rather like this idea.

so

• '... female ballerina, masked males?
• ... where could i film this? well i was thinking of the school corridor, as its long and thin and this would workout well especially looking at it through a camera, also with lots of openings this could well as when the music breaks into a heavy like smashing smash aha the men can jump out like 'animals' out of these doorways and straight onto this woman, like how a tiger would a deer, surround her and circle her. She runs and runs straight through this corridor to get away, past some as they come out this class rooms. this idea also reminds me of scenes in I Am Legend, where the infected people run out of the shadows and after will smith and his dog.

So where could i film this idea?

Our school has four main corridors with classrooms, A floor, B floor, C floor and D floor. i would want to film on D floor as its quite isolated and dark, well darker than the rest

of the corridors. Also if i was filming in this corridor half way through the corridor

there is an opening with two double doors, this reminds me of a hospital corridor,

and so i came up with the that i could use this too an advantage.

With the ballerina pushing the door wide open as the sounds our bombarded with heavy guitar, possibly showing a zoomed in shot of her movements, hand and expression as she pushes this door open, and as she pushes this door open the demons jump out from the shadows.

I really like this idea, though i think i may have it back to the drawing board, as i want to come up with something a bit less so obvious and done and been there kinda of thing.
