Pitch Two

Our second pitch stemmed mostly from the idea of a church and the religious aspect of our song. We thought that a church, particularly one with a large stained glass window would be ideal to shoot our band in. We still wanted to keep a partial narrative to our video, but decided that it would be better if we devised a narrative that wasn't to far different from our performance. We thought the best idea would be a confession box within the church were the band are performing, featuring only the lead singer as he 'confesses'.

We had many ideas for the beginning of our video, for example:
A close up of the stained glass window, then a pan down to the cello as the song begins to play
A tracking shot of the lead singers feet as he walks up the aisle towards the rest of the band at the beginning of the song
A long shot as the lead singer opens the door to the church in slow motion and enters

The main instruments that would be priviledged are:
The cello
The violin
The drums

There will be many close ups of the singer throughout the song, and many of our camera shots will onvolve movement as the pace of the song picks up. We could imagine a shaky camera focusing on the violin as the speed of the song picks up.
