Research and Planning - Treatment

The song that me and Shaneece have chosen for our music video is ‘sing sing’ by the band Marianas Trench. After listening to the song a couple of times we started to brainstorm ideas of the story for our music video. In the end we decided on something we decided on the ‘Stalker Story’. We are going to try to fit the story with the lyrics of the song.

The story is about a fan girl who followers her favourite band member everywhere he goes and even turns up at his house etc. The band member is trying to make her go away by doing various stuff such as running away, ignoring her and even slamming the door in her face. At the start of the video you will see the band member walking down the street casually and you see the girl following him the band member then turns around and sings the first line ‘can I have your attention’ trying to make her stop following him. The girl ignores him and starts bugging him for his autograph instead , the band member ends up running away from her on the line ‘you’re not making it easy to slow me down’.

When the chorus kicks in you will see the band member in his house sitting on a dining table eating his dinner with the girl peeping inside his window on the line ‘it’s no wonder I’m not eating’ and then it will cut to the band member in bed with a pillow over his head on the line ‘I’m not sleeping’. There will then be a knock on the door, when the band member answers the door the girl will be there singing the chorus after has finished singing the band member will then slam the door in her face.

The next scene is of the band member shouting out his window from a megaphone to the fan girl who is waiting below on the line ‘are you hearing me now’. It will then cut to the band member coming out of the shops with bags, you will then see the fan girl appear from round the corner and scare him so he drops his bags on the floor. The fan girl will then try and take a picture with him whilst he is on the floor trying to pick his stuff up. The band member will then run away from the girl again to try to get away from her.

The video will then end with the fan girl and the band member walking past each other and the fan girl not even noticing because she has given up chasing the band member.

I think that our idea will come across well as it is quite simple but also fits in with the lyrics of the song. We will use a range of camera angles and props to make our music video the best we can make it. As this is only our first plan of what we are going to for our video our final piece could be totally different as we might decide to change our ideas as we are filming.
