GROUP 38 Alex, Antoine, Tally + Brit! - Music Video 2008/9: Narrative Ideas

Narrative Ideas

We felt that the narrative could be of a person getting into a fight as some of the lyrics would relate to this idea.

'....got be thinking bout the way that we live,
I've got this feeling it's gonna stop'.
These lyrics could be relating to the low/bad (thug-like) life that the character in the story leads. However, the lyrics indicate that he wants to change the way he lives his life.

'A billion faces running round my head,
All got opinions but they don’t mean shit
This could be displayed my a group of people (a billion faces) trying to intimidate a person, shouting their 'opinions' all at once.

Very Cool Idea
Please read.....
I think that we should have a silhouette figure watching the bands performance, sort of as if the band are playing to this silhouette. It adds the feel that they are being watched/ judged, which fits in with our being watched narrative. Also it puts depth to the bands performance.



'A battleground indeed'
Signifying the place where the fight takes place.

'The hate that drives us needs to be stopped.'
This could be almost voicing the thoughts of the character in the story that is getting bullied.


We had originally thought of having a person look as if they are coming out of a river. If we had this clip at the beginning of the video it could be as if the person was re-living the moments that led up to them being in a river. We could incorporate the idea above by having the person coming out of the river being the one that gets into the fight. The video could end with the person getting pushed/thrown into the river from the fight (gives an explanation of how the person ended up in the river).
