Basic Story Outline:
The song starts and its like that quick drum beat so each beat can be like Emily stumbling down the street on her way to the pub n she gets inside and it's just like messy handheld shots of her drinking and like rolling her head in her hands and falling about. Then the camera will change to a shot of Connie and Leah in the background like whispering about her, pull focus back somewhere or something choppy and then Connie and Leah approach Emily near the bit of the song; the two lines before the 'kick me out’ bit and we can like come up to her and have a cheeky smile to each other and then the next shot is Emily like falling out of the pub doors in a slow mo at the first 'kick me out' and then a different angle of her falling at the second 'kick me out’. Then there's like a point of view shot from Emily's perspective looking up at us at we're standing at the doors looking down at her. Basically we ruff her up and give her a gun and turn her into one of the others {Connie and Leah are basically modern day outlaws that take misfits in off the streets}
Genre: Grunge Music Video {with narrative}
Music: Arctic Monkeys - Fake Tales of San Francisco
{only be able to do like 2 mins of the song anyway so we can
fade out at the instrumental bit around two minutes.}
Equipment:
Nikon DSLR
Spare Battery
18-55mm lens
Macro Lens {extreme close-up - detailing of the clothing, facial expressions, props}
Tripod {to create steady shots}
Props: Fake Gun, alcohol
Location:
The location will vary but it will all be inside Nuneaton due to travel expenses and the shortness of time we have to produce a 1-2 minute feature film. Most of the locations we will be scouting will have some sort of derelict aspect to fit with our ‘grunge theme’.
Locations in particular that we want to shoot are:
Pool Club
Pool Club Car Park
Independent food restaurants
Streets
Ideas:
Derelict places in Nuneaton and shoot cool shots of derelict area’s/buildings {Pool Club, Pool Club Car Park, Independent food restaurants and Streets}
Dress: Grunge, Alternative Rocker, mid-1980s {teenage dirtbag}
Sort of ‘on the lamb’ storyline, like we are running away from something
Something that happened in San Fransisco, using the song lyrics metaphorically
In the song the lyrics repeat ‘kick me out, kick me out’, swap the characters around; the first verse is Emily getting pissed in the pub and the getting kicked out, then Connie and Leah find her and we all run away together
Fake Gun: Emily shooting someone after she gets kicked out but we find her, save her and run away {have her point the gun at the camera then drop to the floor, have the camera placed on the floor so the camera just captures our feet running to her, and then get a tripod and set it up so it is framing an over the shoulder shot of Emily so we have the same shot from different perspectives}
Emily has lost it because she is drunk, her having a gun make her go crazy
When Emily has the gun pointing at the camera the editing could be very fast paced and choppy where as when she drops to the ground, the footage could be slowed down
