Narrative The main idea for our narrative stemmed from what we believe the song to be about, leaving for university and leaving your family and friends behind. Our video will depict an 18 year old male packing up his car and saying goodbye to his family before heading off to university. On the drive to university he has flashbacks of some good memories of being at home involving girls, drinking with friends and playing gigs with his old band.
Performance
The performance element of the video will come from the main character singing along with the song in his car on the way to university. This will begin approximately half way through the video when the song slows down and becomes more emotional (we will also slow the amount of shots in this section).
The first half of the video will take place in the house and on the drive of the main characters family, here he will be seen loading his car, saying goodbye to his family and emptying out his old room to an empty shell of what it was before. Although this is emotional, we try to also capture some excitement of what is to come for the character and we hope to ensure that this section of the video comes across more as the beginning of a new chapter as appose to the ending of another.
In the second half of the video we shall be depicting the journey, although this starts off happy and excitable, flashing back to past memories our character becomes upset and melancholic, we shall film this section of the video in the hours before, during, and after sunset, this should show a form of pathetic fallacy in the environment, that as the character becomes more upset, the light outside dwindles.
