Music Video Pitch (Planning)

SongThe song I have chosen for my music video is Arctic Monkeys – Mardy Bum. This song is about a couple, the boyfriend is singing about his girlfriend saying that its hard to remember the good times when she is in a bad mood. I have chosen this song because you can show the meaning of the songs through expressions and make the audience relate to the song through this.

ClothingI will try to stick with the indie rock style. My inspiration has been taken from the lead singer of Arctic Monkeys, Alex Turner, as this will help the audience relate the video back to arctic monkeys.

There are some examples of how Alex Turner dresses below.

LocationThe locations I will use will relate to the lyrics. For examples one of the locations will be a kitchen due to the lyrics “remember cuddles in the kitchen..” This will help the audience relate the song lyrics to the video. I will also use a train station due to the lyrics “I missed the train and then the traffic was a state..”

Another location I will use will be a road as they will walk down, this will relate to parts of the lyrics where he is trying to remember the good times.

Feedback

My feedback has told me that my ideas are good and that I am relating the lyrics to the video well which will help the audience relate to the song. They like the idea of using inspiration from Alex Turners clothing so the audience can relate the video to the band. The advice I got was that it may be too hard to get to a house so do it around a street instead.
