Visual Styler of our music video

The visual style that our group unanymously visualised for our music video was;
  • Metallic colours/silvers/blacks for the costumes in particular.
  • Location beginning in a girlies bedroom, frilly/bright.
  • Icons e.g. Locket/ring, secrets box, wilting rose, letter.
  • Lighting - nightime, twilight/dim
  • The idea of the singer being a gaurdian angel and crossing paths with the feamle actor.
  • London Location - high rise buildings
  • Iconic locations - Hyde Park/ Oxford Circus/ Trocadero - escalators.
  • Singer = Gaurdian Angel - like Bruce Willis' character in 'Sixth Sense' - thinks that he is alive but is actually dead.
