One of my ideas is to represent the relationships bad times throughout the song in black and white, and the good times in colour. I didn’t want to have my narrative exactly the same as the diegesis because it is to obvious and boring. I wanted to portray the relationship happily for my first concept and have the narrative tell the story about their relationship and what they have been through, for example, the lyrics ‘it’s not a walk in the park to love eachother’ could include filming of the couple having an argument at a party. I want to include fast paced editing throughout the song to keep up with the beat and to represent how fast the time has passed whilst they have been in a relationship.
CONCEPT 2
For the intro of the video, I
thought to film clouds passing by but speed up the editing to represent how
fast the time has passed with them being in a relationship. For the chorus of
the song I wanted to represent the fact that the girl loves the boy no matter
what he does, and to represent this I wanted to have a scenario were the boy
messes up but the girl forgives him. For the last verse of the song, I wanted
to film the girl singing in performance as this verse is strong and powerful in
terms of the singing, and I thought that filming her in performance would also
give the music video verisimilitude. At the end of the song, the song title is
repeated 3 times and I thought about filming a happy scenario of them maybe
laying down on a bed together.
CONCEPT 3
This idea is to have a girl
reminiscing on the old times that she had with her boyfriend, but now he has
moved on and is happy with someone else. I wanted the verses to represent her
and her ex boyfriends old times and the chorus to represent him with his new
girlfriend. I also wanted to include in the narrative the girl trying to break
up her ex boyfriends relationship with trying absolutely anything. At the end I wanted to have her begging for
her boyfriend back and him not being interested in her at all and telling her
that he doesn't want her anymore.
CONCEPT 4
My fourth idea is to have the ex girlfriend confused and deluded. She believes that her boyfriend has broken up with her for another girl, but what she doesn't realise is that he was never real, and that he was just a figment of her imagination. To show this I want to use pictures at the beginning of the music video of her and her boyfriend, then at the end, show her looking back at the pictures, but he isn't in them, it's just her in the pictures by herself. I like this concept because it gives the music video a twist and a shock to the audience at the end, making it remembered.
CONCEPT 5
My fifth and final concept is to have a narrative of a young teenage couple, that are madly in love, and the boyfriend broke up with her for no apparent reason. The female is upset and is actually turning insane because of this and this will be shown through editing and mise en scene, for example using blur over the boy and their memories.
What concept have I chosen?
I have chosen concept 5 for my music video. This is because I like the fact of having a twist at the end of the music video and giving the audience a shock. Even though a teenage romance is extremely 'typical' of pop music videos, I am wanting to try and make it not so conventional and boring. I will need to start looking at locations and costumes to suit my concept and also start my storyboard.

Inspirational Music Video
With having chosen a concept for my music video, I have been looking into similar music videos that have the same narrative style as what I have chosen. The video narrative that I really liked and thought worked really well was P!nk's music video to 'Who Knew'. The whole music videos narrative is based around a young couple that is madly in love and all of a sudden their relationship ends. P!nk is singing her own feelings of her broken up relationship through the narrative of this couple instead of herself. One thing that I really like about the video is the mise-en-scene at the fair ground. I think that this represents the young couple as being childish, but also as having fun, and it represents how much they enjoyed being in each others company which makes the love story more tragic. An idea for mine would be to maybe use a park for the location as this relates to my teenage target audience and also it shows that they are in a world of their own and no one else around them matters. P!nk also uses performance and narrative in her music video which is what I was planning to do for my music video. For my music video, I want to use my female actress for both the performance and the narrative, as it represents it being her experience of a relationship, relating to the audiences feelings, as they will think that they are not the only people that have been through this.
