Ideas...

Me and my group have decided to use Eliza Lumleys 'Street Spirit' for our music video and have started doing some research on how we want to make it (i.e content= setting, lighting, colourscheme, etc).

During my research I found a few images that have inspired me with ideas i have discussed with my group and it's likely that we're going to use them.

So far, we vision our video to be slow, haunting (due to the song), we want to have sentences going across the screen (most likely lyrics from the song, these will be ghostly and almost transparent), we are going to have a female artist in the middle of a room ressed in a classy dress playing the pianno, there are gonna be memories being projected on the walls of the room (behind her), hopefully if all goes well then we want to pan around her so we can see the images that are being projected and ofcourse this will help to create a hectic atmosphere to show the thoughts that are in her head...only they will be showing outside.

We have managed to get a pianno we could use, also, one of my team members has agreed to be the female artist for our vieo, we have some dresses that she could use for the costume we want. We have decided to use a greyscale colourscheme for the memories, the artist will be in gold or red playing an intique coloured pianno so she can be the central focus of the video as she will be in colour.

One of the images i found was of an abondanned room with a fireplace that we want to use in the video, this is possible with green-screaning, if we will be able to get the technology we require. As our ideas are still in progress, we have not got a complete vision of the video, however we have an inspirational idea and would like to carry it out as it is so far.

The only problem we are having is finding lyrics for the song. The lyrics are valueable for helping with ideas for the song and ofcourse for the female artist in our video who will be mimicking the words as if she were singing.
