Pitch One

Our first pitch of ideas involved more of a narrative style of video. We had already identified the theme of the song as confession and dishonesty, and then linked this to the line 'Till all my sleeves are stained red'. We then thought that this lyric could imply that a murder has taken place and perhaps the singer is feeling to guilty and emotional. We were going to have a narrative and performance based video, but concentrating mainly on the narritive part. Our teacher then told us that a murder is probably to powerful to display in a music video, and is rarely seen. We knew that controversial videos like 'Smack My Bitch Up' did include involve these sorts of narratives, but the peaceful nature of our song compared the the song by The Prodigy did not make it a good narrative for our song. We then began to plan a more performance based video.
