Planning: Outline of of narrative

I personal really like the song we have chosen as it talks about themes that a lot of teenagers and young people (especially females ) go throught , such as ; suicide , problems fitting in , parental problems and not liking their appearance.

My music video will be mostly performance and narrative based with a little bit of concept. We have decided to plan our video like this as we want to be able to tell a story and raise awareness of some of the struggles people go through such as suicide , abusing relationships and bullying; in order to do this we need to make sure it is very narrative based. However, we also want to make sure the audience is able to make a connection with the artist and so we have to make sure there is some star image by making the video part performances based. lastly, we want to make the video relevant to young people and so we are using some concept and having street dancers in small sections of the video.

Theories: 

Goodwin-

We are following some of this theory as we will be including editing that matches the pace of the song and the visuals will make sense to the lyrics. 

Dyer-

We will be following this theory as we are using star image with our 2 main characters by using lip syncing. 

Mulvey-

We will not be using this theory as we do not want our female characters to be represented as sexy and instead we want them to be represented as vulnerable and innocent in order for the audience to understand their struggles. 

Hebdige:

We are not going to use this theory as although our visuals and themes are not mainstream they do not resist mainstream and do not fall into a subculture.

Adorno:

We are not following this idea as we are not trying to manipulate put audience and turn them into masses with out video.
