When listening to
'How Long Will I Love You' I started
to think for some ideas for my music video. I had the idea that I would show
the journey of a single mum bringing up her first baby on her own. I thought
about showing the significant stages in life (walking, talking, school,
graduation, marriage etc.) at the end I was going to show the death of the mum
and the child's heart ache. The song lyrics would reflect the video: 'how long
will I love you/as long as the stars are above you', showing that the son would
always need his mum.
When
talking to Mr Buckmaster he told me to revaluate doing it in a linear fashion
and so I changed a few of my initials ideas but I have kept with the basic idea
of showing the relationship between a single mum and her son and their
dependency on each other.
· I will start my video with the
death of the mum, and then tell the story of how it gets to that shot through
the music video. I had the idea of have a shot of the mum's eyes closed and
then a perspective shot of the baby opening his eyes to see his mother standing
above him.
· I am then going to have shots mirroring
each other. The video will show the journey of the boy growing up and the journey
of the mum getting ill and dying. It will show the mum helping the boy learn
things and grow up and then the boy helping his mum when she is ill; i.e. the
mum feeding the boy and then the boy helping his mum eat. This will reflect
that they both need each other as much as the other
· At the end I wanted to show the
boy revisiting a significant place for him as and his mum, which will be seen
earlier on in the video, and have a shot of him there looking sad and then his
own daughter and family running towards him, signifying that the story has
already started over again.
Below is an example of a shot I am thinking of using:
