Concept for clip
Explain what narrative/images the clip will contain It is a narrative and collage.
The images will signify the relationship + journey a couple will take from first meeting, till the girl’s end. It will highlight their time together and the cute things and rituals that made up their relationship. It will be from the guy’s perspective the whole time, as the beginning he would be lonely then changing into a happy and content one with the love of his life, yet everything changes yet again, and he is left lonely once again.

Style
What look and feel will your clip have? The messages behind the music video is that love can change your life for the better and is a beautiful and fulfilling thing everyone should be able to experience. And another message is about how life continuously changes and not always for the better.
Technical codes
Explain the ideas you have about camera work, transition devices, lighting, special effects, framing and composition So we would like the whole music video to be shot as if it comes from the male’s perspective, thus we can only see from his points of view. We would like to use lighting to highlight the low and high points in his life. It would be darker and more dull toned at the beginning and end of the video as she is not in his life at these points, and would be vibrant and full of colour when she is there.
Audio codes
What is the song about and how do the lyrics relate to the visuals you have selected? Will you be adding an additional sound? The song is about a girl that is changing his life in both positive and negative aspects of life and in some way she has hurt him, thus her death has caused pain and suffering in his now lonely life again.

Written codes
If you are using any written codes, what text will you use? What is its significance?
Symbolic codes
Will there be any symbols in your clip and what will they be? Will you repeat any images or use a motif? How will the symbolism you have used contribute to the message of your clip? The pace is rather slow yet rhythmic and contains builds, therefore we can contains both long sets footage and create fast cuts between others to create moods and represent their times together.
There will be a necklace that he shall give to her a one point in the video that symbolises their love and connection. She will wear this throughout the video and will be placed upon her grave, to show that his love for her is forever.
Key elements of mise-en-scene to be used
Explain the settings needed and outline key props and costumes needed The beach, Pac-Fair, a coffee shop, Southport cemetery, pool, park and we also need the neckless. The multiple locations will signify there time together and the amount of memories they share.
Appeal
What things in your clip do you think will appeal to a youth audience? The plot twist of the girl being dead in the end would be quite a shock and the moments together would be pleasing and cute.
