When thinking what I could do for my music video I instantly had all the ideas for it. However I wanted feedback on my ideas. So I sat down with one of my friends who is doing the same course as me receiving both her praises and criticisms.
Originally due to the of the version of the song I was using I found it hard to think of an opening scene. So in thinking about it I had decided to do the opening in a chip shop. Discussing this idea with Lucy we both found that we didn't like the idea and wanted to do something different but we didn't know what. With Lucy even calling the idea too low-budget. Instead of scrapping the idea we put it on the shelf looking for other ideas. Until Lucy told me to play her the song I found a different version which included a dialogue interlude, as if she was writing something. So I had the idea to shots of her writing in her diary on her bed instead an idea in which we'd both agreed with.
Another criticism was my idea to incorporate fireworks in the ending scene. Not that it wasn't a good idea, it was just the fact that it just wasn't practical. The idea of filming at night without the correct equipment is redundant. So I updated the idea; the idea of an isolated field with two lovers seemed more intimate than a sky full of fireworks.
However all of my idea were received quite well the idea of a simplistic video seemed suited to this song with the visuals being able to picture.
