Music Video Treatment

Song Title: What makes us girls

 

Artiste: Lana Del Rey

 

Genre: Alternative/ Indie

 

Target audience:

The target audience for my music video is mainly females as alot of the artist’s fanbase is female.The age group of my target audience is teens to late 20s.My music video will appeal to all sexualities because there are no hetrosexual couples in my music video

 

Inspiration

The inspiration for my music video came from listening to the song and getting ideas from the lyrics in what I wanted to show in my music video.I also looked at other music videos from that artist which inspired me to use lip syncing and to use a lot of low lighting and a nightime location to set the tone of the song.

 

Visual Descriptive outline

 

My video will start out with a close up shot of girls feet as she walks it will then cut to a mid-shot of three girls walking , then another close up of the next girl’s feet as she walks then back to the mid-shot to go with the beat of the intro.Then when the lyrics start there will be a shot of the three girls walking and laughing (along the seafront at night).I will then have close up shot’s lips where I have lip syncing.I will have shot’s od three girls having fun and close up shot’s of mascara running down there eyes.

1.EXT OUTSIDE A TERRACED HOUSE(DAYTIME/RAINING)

 

It is a cold December morning and Carrie is waiting outside Jennifer’s house to catch the school bus. It is raining heavily and the wind is blowing strongly causing carries umbrella to break and fly in the air hitting Jennifer’s neighbour’s car.

 

CARRIE

Oh for Christ sake!(whispers to herself)

 

Carrie run’s after the broken umbrella when she see’s Jennifer waving at her from the window with a signal to say she will be outside in a minute.

 

JENNIFER

Hi Carrie, sorry I’m late, forgot to set my alarm again.

 

 

CARRIE

That’s ok, we better get going or we’re going to miss the bus.

 

Carrie looks at her watch worryingly. Carrie and Jennifer start to run.

 

JENNIFER

(heavy breathing from the running) We better not miss the bus, I can’t be late again to first period Mrs.Godfrey will kill me.

 

CARRIE

If we’re late I’m blaming you (in a sarcastic tone)

 

They get to the bus stop

 

2.EXT OUTSIDE THE SCHOOL (DAYTIME/THE RAIN HAS STOPPED)

 

The school is a small building at the corner of the road there is graffiti on the brick walls surrounding the building. There is litter and fag butts on the floor by the gate of the school.

ELIZIBETH

 

Hey, give me my purse back, I know you have it.(Elizabeth looks disappointingly at Sarah).

 

Elizabeth and Sarah are arguing outside the school. Elizabeth is grabbing on to Sarah’s bag trying to take it off her.

 

SARAH

(Sarah says innocently) I don’t know what you’re talking about Lizzie, just because you hate me you think you can blame me for everything. Pathetic Bitch (whispers under her breath.

 

ELIZIBETH

What did you call me?. You’re the one going around stealing people’s purse’s.

 

Elizabeth manages to take the bag out of Sarah’s possession and holds it tight and begins to search through the bag.

 

Carrie steps in to try and break up the argument when Elizabeth pours the contents of the bag onto the floor for everyone to see. People gather around forming a large circle resembling a flock of seagulls.

 

CARRIE

Lizzie what do you think you’re doing, your just embarrassing yourself! Everyone’s laughing at you.

 

The other students start laughing.

 

ELIZIBETH

You’re supposed to be my friend Carrie, back me up here!

 

JENNIFER

We are your friends Elizabeth, trust me we’re trying help you. Give Sarah her bag back.

 

CARRIE

Why would Sarah take your purse. Look she doesn’t have it.(Carrie points to the contents of Sarah’s bag on the pavement).

 

SARAH

(With a smug look on her face)I told you I didn’t take it, but you just didn’t listen.

 

ELIZIBETH

Oh shut up Sarah.

 

Carrie and Jennifer help Sarah to pick up here things and give Sarah her bag back. The crowd fizzles out as everyone starts to go inside for first period. Carrie hands Sarah her bag and Sarah begins to walk off.
