Firstly, we decided to once again change the narrative of our music video. There are a number of reasons for this. When thinking about all the narrative elements that needed filming we came to terms with the idea that some of the elements would be practically too difficult to film on no budget. Therefore, we decided to change to a pastiche of the 50s and 60s. We liked the idea of a parody or pastiche similar to the 'Weezer - Buddy Holly" video and the lead singer dreaming of them being seen on TV. The lead singer will be sitting in a dark empty flat, sitting on the floor. The room will be empty. Just him and a TV. The light from the tv will light his face. On the TV he will be watching an 50s related american music show. The camera will zoom into the TV where the band will be introduced and play a live gig. Mid way through the camera will cut to individuals band members doing different activities and after that activity they look to a tv and see the band playing on the tv.
We wanted to use a more up beat, pacy song to create more of a 50s rock and roll feel. We decided to change to Miss Alissa by the Eagles of Death Metal. The vocals in the song are perfect for what we are looking for. However, we are not changing the star image of the band as this one music video is a pastiche the 50s. The rest of the album, the band will still be indie rock.
