FINAL SONG IDEA!!

We have finally chosen our track for our music video. As soon as we heard this song we knew it would be perfect as it contains both male and female vocals and is neither too hiphop or too indie. We have all decided to go away and come up with our own treatment for this song and then we will go through them all and come up with our final one tomorrow.

So here is my treatment for this song:

It is going to be a performance video but with a twist. Like 'Run DMC and Aerosmith - Walk This Way' it will be the two different genres competing for attention from the audience/camera. They will be dressed very stereotypical for their genre of music with the male wearing skinny jeans and having his band perform behind him, and the girl wearing lots of jewelry and makeup and looking very hip-hop.

At first there will be a wall separating the two different music genres, but as the music video progresses this barrier becomes smaller and smaller until they eventually swap roles. This is signifying how the gaps between music genres are shrinking and also there is less of a divide between males and females.

Throughout the video we will cut to shots of the lead male vocalist and the female vocalist dancing and singing separately with an effect like the ipod advert on it. It will be their own individual chance to shine focussing the audiences attention on the two main focal points of the song.

We will begin the video with a close up of the sticks hitting the symbols on the drum kit and then cutting to a CU of the girl turning the volume up on her CD player.

There will be a lot of sexual tension between the male lead and the female throughout the song and this is eventually what brings them together because they cannot resist each other. They are teasing each other throughout. They both morph into the other person in appearance in order to be accepted by them.

At the very end the two people will be performing on a stage together in a dark room, almost like a concert venue, with lots of people dancing around in front of them and partying. There will be a distinct difference in the people as the boys will be dressed indie, like the male lead and the girls will be dressed very hip hop like the female lead, however they are partying together which shows the two genres and sexes can come together seamlessly and there is no need for a divide.

The last shot will be of
