Initial NEA music video ideas

 Music video 

Song: Iron Sky (2014)

By: Paulo Nutini 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuF1u9MnkjM


My intentions for this video is to raw attention to the political events happening in the world recently, including corruption and inequality. The video will look at the viewpoint of ordinary people living their lives in different areas of the country to showcase how people are effected by what is happening on a larger scale in the world. 

The lyrics in the video contain themes on people living amongst each other in a city. I would therefore like to film parts of the video in busy London destinations to capture the multicultural variety of people living there. The song has a dar, serious and empowering tone, so there will need to be a darker filter over the video, potentially needing to be filmed in the evening or during winter months. 

I would like for there to be lots of close - ups, so that audiences are able to look into the eyes of different people, and 'face reality'. Additionally, there should be action shots throughout the video of someone running along the beach, or punching a punching bag, in oder to line up with the heavy bass line in the song and the empowering mood. 

Ideas

Beginning:

starts with a walking bass line -  each time the note changes, it will change to a close - up of a different person. 

'we are proud individuals, living for the city' - a busy Mise - en - scene of London, with many different people surrounding the protagonist. 

'we find God and religions, to bait us with salvation' - establishing shot of a religious building in London

'mass confusion spoon fed to the blind, serves now to define our cold society' - wide shot of a busy destination in London 

Branding

Website -

- A link to the website at the end of the video, promoting the merch 

- will include a shop to buy merch e.g. T - Shirt that says 'Rise over love, over hate' 

- A chance for fans to subscribe to the website 

- promoting tour dates or upcoming albums
