Research and Planning- Narrative.

We have decided to slightly change our story’s narrative within our music video as at the moment it is quite complicated and not easy to follow. So far our narrative looks like our band running through a forest. We have developed our apocalypse theme by placing props in the wood location which hint to past lives and memories. We feel that these object also work well with the mood we want to create as some objects are quite represents something usually quite normal and we have given them a darker effect. For example the teddy bear can represent childhood and innocence however because the teddy bear we have used is dirty and abandoned it has begun to create a scary effect and can also pull on our audiences heart strings. These objects can engage our audience further as they begin to ask questions on how they got to that location and what meaning the objects have. However I also think that this is too complicated and we have also begun to explore the narrative of time. We are going this by slowing down footage and repeating the imagery of the pocket watch. I think this is a much more interesting narrative and it works well with our past theme of an apocalypse and previous footage.
