Influences


The first  image I extracted are from The A Team - Ed Sheeran. The chosen narrative in this music video is that a young woman has become a prostitute as she is relent on drugs. I'd look to use some ideas from this such as the story of a person on drugs and why they might take them. My chosen idea for my storyline is about a young middle class girl who takes drugs to get away from family problems. I'd like to show my audience that drugs today are a big issue and that any person regardless of there social status can become an addict.

This image was extracted from I am the walrus by The Beatles. I think this music video will be useful research for my project as it's very drug influenced. Many scenes in the music don't seem to make ideological sense unless the audience understand that the performers are acting like they've taken some sort of a hallucinogenic drug. I believe this idea of the performers being detached from reality makes the video very interesting to watch and let the audience see how drugs can effect the mind and body within different people. In my music video I'd like to also show the audience of how drugs can effect the mind with the positive aspects such as feeling happy and negatives such as being paranoid or getting upset. I think my basic idea of my storyline will fit will with the fast paced song with fast paced shots.





These images are taken from 'Rooftops' performed by Lost Prophets. The idea I'd like to use from this video is the mid shots and close ups of  one/two adults trying to influence there daughter to be how they are which is middle class and successful. In result of trying to control there daughter they are very stressed and pushy.





 From my own expierence I now believe that teeangers are more likely to rebel if they're pushed to be who there parents want them to be. I want to show this issue in my music video by the teeange girl turning to drugs to get away from her troubles.
