Treatment

Conceptually, the song for me has connotations of death and/or remembrance. The lyrics indicate that the song is about love for another individual however implying that they are not attainable for whatever reason. These themes will come across in the video but no coherent narrative will be presented. The video will be performance based, the performer in different locations displaying an emotional response to the lyrics at parts and at other parts establishing a direct address to the audience.

In terms of locations, I want to use three separate places. I feel this will work as there is no narrative and so the focus of the video will be performance. One location will be in a field, preferably captured at very early hours of the morning to create a very natural and warm feeling. Another location will be in the city, contrasting the natural setting. The last location will be a studio, performing on an instrument.

Costumes will correspond with locations. Conforming to the 'indie' genre and associated dress code I want to create a more relaxed feel in the field location, with more casual clothing. The city location will be more formal and a darker colour palette

I want to incorporate a variety of shots, including tracking shots, close-ups and long-shots, always keeping the star image in mind.
