Pitch - Music Video Ideas

One idea we thought about to use for our project was M.I.A - Paper Planes. We then brainstormed about what we could use as a narrative/performance in our music video. We intend to make a very loose narrative about summer holidays. We would intend to get shots of places like airports and airplanes, resorts, pools, beaches, bars etc. On top of this we would add areas of lip syncing as a way of also adding in areas of performance in the video.

Another idea we came up with was to use the song Day and Night - Kid Cudi. We then thought about a narrative where we would drive around a busy town in the daytime and film lots of footage there, and then do the same again but at night, and then in the video make the comparisons between the day life of the city and the night life. We would also use time lapses both on the busy street and the interior of the car. This is the idea that we decided to go with in the end.
