My first idea was to feature the band playing at a gig, either playing at the Junction or possibly the hall at College. That is my preferred filming locations. I would also have a narrative featuring someone running to get to the gig on time, whilst intercutting between the two. As he reaches the Junction, the video would fade out or possibly have him running into the Junction and showing the band packing up after the gig.
I also know that the band are due to play a live gig at the Junction on the 16th October, so I was hoping to go there and film possible crowd shots and a few of the band playing. This would be brief as trying to synch the performance up with the track, would be too time consuming for the time I have got to do this.
I wanted to create a video that fitted in with the theme of the song, but as the theme was about the war in Iraq and people dying, I decided to scrap that idea as I couldn't literally kill anyone, not that I wanted to.
Idea 2
The second idea was to have the band on top of a City Sightseeing bus and playing the song. This would've been an expensive way of filming the music video and would've required a lot more time than I had available to make the music video for the band. I knew the likeliness of the band approving of this idea would be very unlikely, but I decided to pitch it to them no matter what.
