settings

the setting of our video will ideally be in the town in rush hour, we want lots to be happening with lots of people around so that we can really make the idea of the wilderness in the characters heads. the boy will be at the train statioin, he will just miss his first train and we will have shots of him running up and close ups of the despair on his face, we will have shots of trains going past him waiting for his one with a look on his face that shows a look of dispair and disapointment becuase he knows he cant get to where he wants, we will also have the girl in the middle of town maybe down the backs not being able to get to where she wants, she will try and struggle. the idea behid this is becuase in the song it keeps saying got to be someone. i wanna be something, which is why we wanted to show the people who are trying to be something together. when they are alone they arent proper people they dont feel themselves but when they are together it is like the other people complete them.

we want to try and get the setting at dusk or night time, we dont want it to dark but we want it so that it isnt really that bright, we will have saturised colour making it really dull untill the end, if we make the people meet up then we will bring colour in but becuase the song trails off at one point it leaves it open for us to decide whether we want a happy ending or a sad ending, we will be using the dark setting and the desaturised colour also as a metaphore as it seems as if the two characters lives have no live no colour with out each other.
