MUSIC VIDEO: NEW IDEA

I had been thinking of an idea for the music video. I had to rule out ideas which involved complex storylines because I don't have much time to pull that off anymore due to all these setbacks and also because of the added burden of my Foundation Portfolio. Usually, music videos made on pop songs do not have a complex narrative so I thought it'd be best to select a pop song for the music video and follow the conventions by keeping it mostly performance based.

The song I've decided on is Where Is Home by Elliphant. The basic idea for the music video is to show a girl who seems to be searching for something, something to make her feel at home, to make her feel at peace, but she is unable to find it. This will be represented with symbolic elements such as flowers and trees and nature as a whole. I got this idea after I saw a friend going through a difficult patch in her life. I asked her if she'd be okay acting in my music video and she happily agreed. So, this song is based around her personality.

I'll start working on the storyboard soon.
