A2!!! Let's get started!

For our A2 Portfolio, we will be making a music video. My group(Precious&Yusupha)and I picked the track Promises by Cloud Control. We believe it's a great song, we already discussed the type of video we would like to make it over the summer. We met up in the holiday to have a discussion and gather all of our ideas. 

We all agreed on making a narrative music video so that we will be able to be extremely creative with the story telling while simultaneously connect with the audience. 

We believe that a performance video would limiting ourselves as there isn't much we could do. The video would eventually become boring. 

We also thought that a concept video would be too random, our project would overall be more enjoyable if it had a storyline so that we could relate both the lyrics and the music to the visuals. 

A combination of a performance and narrative video wouldn't be too bad but we decided to just focus on the narrative part. Lip synching is extremely corny so we opted out that idea. 

We already came up with a number of great ideas. My initial idea was that we could have a couple going through a break up. 

Yusupha's idea was that we could have multiple young people with different talents. The talented individuals would go through trials and tribulations in irder to achieve their ultimate goal at the end. 

Precious' idea was similar to mine but more elaborated. As it was the best idea we decided to stick with it. 

The idea was that a girl suffering from depression was on the verge of commiting suicide due to her lovers death. The video would then cut to their happy moments in their relationships before it climaxes to an end where she drowns herself. 

I believe it's a great idea and Im super excited to officially start filming. 

BUT FIRST  we need to film our preliminary task...which is due on Friday the 12th of September.
