Hit the lights – gravity

lyricsCan you feel our gravity? Can you gravitate to me? Can you feel the gravity? Right now! Can you feel me closing in counting down satellites? Can you see the galaxies brighten when we're aligned? And every star that navigates, Will guide me all the way to you I've been orbiting but you could pull me through

Can you feel our gravity? Can you gravitate to me? Can you feel the gravity? Right now Can you feel our energy, As it pulls you into me? Can you gravitate to me? Do you lie awake scanning the stars at night? Are you holding out hope for a sign of life? Do constellations carry you?Do galaxies come into view? Do you wait for me? Cause I could wait for you!

Can you feel our gravity? Can you gravitate to me? Do you feel the gravity? Right now Can you feel our energy, As it pulls you into me? Can you gravitate to me? Right now! Don't! Don't pass me by If we let go Our worlds collide Our worlds collide Can you feel our gravity? Can you gravitate to me? Can you feel our gravity? Right now Can you feel our energy? Could it pull you into me? Can you feel our gravity? Right now!

The video opens with lots of little videos, this plays within the first 7 seconds.

In this little video the shot the same but the people are sped up, this is used again with cars at the beginning of the video.

The traffic was sped up but the people in the background were normal speed.

See the outline of a band member with bright lights behind them

Another building shot.

Fast traffic

Another outline

Get a closer one, more clear it is the singer of the band

The band first appear, this same scene and location is repeated throughout the whole video, when it cuts from the story to the band.

This is sped up traffic

When the beat changes it goes to the story of the girl and boy, rather than the little videos.

The rest of the video is a story with a girl and boy in, every now and then it changes to the band singing. The cuts are quite fast between each of the scenes and in time with the beat of the music, this goes with the rock tone.

OUR STORYBOARD.

0-0.07 seconds The scene will open with a wide shot of video tapes hanging from the roof, try to hide the string so would use a less distinctive colour. It will then slowly zoom in to our character who will be sat on the chair in the middle of the room. It will go closer to her face and then when the beat drops her eyes will open and shell be staring right into the camera.

0.10-0.20As the music speeds up the person would be running through the woods, there will be different shots of her running and from different angles.

0.20-0.40Pulling down the video tapes one by one. It’ll flicker to her running through the woods and the video of instruments. Ends with her sat in the middle of the room with tapes all around her. It'll go from a close up of her face to a wide shot of the room.

Throughout whole videoCover a pair of drumsticks and the strings on a guitar with glow in the dark paint and have people play the instruments. This would be played in small clips/quick cuts in between the longer videos so that it follows the conventions of a normal rock video.

0.40-1.02First time the chorus starts, it'll open with a mid shot from her hips upwards with powder paint thrown into her face/hair. Then receive the powder being thrown at her throughout the length of the chorus all over her body.

1.02-1.06Jellyfish swimming, this links to their album cover. The dark background also matches rock music videos.

1.06-1.13Have ink pouring into a cup, this could be slowed down or sped up. Will use dark colours to match what people expected to see in music videos (from questionnaire).

1.13-1.17The person will be tied to a chair, and trying to get free, this image will then be flipped to show she's defying gravity.

1.17-1.20A video from the point of view of the person, of them travelling on a train.

1.20-1.24Video of water crashing into rocks, from POV of the person as if she is going to jump off into water.

Chorus 1.24-1.48

1.48-1.58Fast flashing lights from a fair ground ride. This matching to the horror element that rock videos have because the viewer cant make out what is happening in the video.

1.58-2.00When the lyrics say “if we let go”, the berries get thrown into the air. Throw berries/leafs up in the air and film the person stood with them falling on them. Then goes to them stomping onto the berries. Then goes to a graphic match of her stomping onto the video tapes

2.07-2.17The video tapes from the opening scene will be on the floor around her, just as the berries where (graphic match) and then shell start smashing them up with her feet.

Chorus 2.17-2.39

2.39- 2.48 Have the instruments playing when it is just instrumental. Along with hair flicks with powder in so that the powder flicks, at 2.45.

2.48-finish Ends with the person blowing glitter into the camera as the music slowly fades out, it'll also fade to black as this happens.
