Music Video Planning - Treatment for my Music Video

Artist and Song : The Royal Concept - On our way

Director: Harvey Cleere

Original Video :



Summary:


The main theme and focuses on this video is the relationship between Harry as our lead actor and his group of friends. The start of the video focuses on the individual enjoying life through visiting cities/iconic landmarks. However, we see him return home to Kettering where he meets his friends at the train station. From the body language of the characters we want both Harry, who is arriving by train, and his friends to be excited when they see each-other. Once they are reunited, we see them travel by car to the woods and on the way we see their friendship through lip synching of songs and generally just enjoying themselves The camera then pans to Harry who is looking out his window smiling to himself, suggesting it could be the first time in a while he has been happy as flashbacks later in the video indicate although he has completed a degree, which we see him receiving in the flashback, and is successful enough to visit locations seen at the start of the video, he is happy being with his true friends. When they arrive from the car, lip synching is performed on top or around the side of the car and smoke grenades are pulled from the boot of the car. Through editing flashbacks are clearly indicated by the screen changing to a slightly greyer style, which has been used in Hollywood cinema and in Television programmes as an expected convention. The smoke is launched into the sky and the friends have a party in the woods and embrace each-other as the video fades out.



Lyrics :

I'll believe when the walls stop turning
I'll believe when the storm is through
I believe I hear them say
David won't stop writing songs
I never wanna shake their hands and stay
I never wanna shake their hands and stay
Oh no let's go

We are young, we are one
Let us shine for what it's worth
To your place, place, place
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way somehow
Hold me close, close, close
We're losing time, time, time
We're losing time, time, time
We're falling to the ground

I'll believe when the sky is burning
I'll believe when I see the view
I believe that I hear them say
David won't stop dreaming now
And everybody clap your hands and shout
And everybody clap your hands and shout
Oh no, they shout

We are young, we are one
Let us shine for what it's worth
To your place, place, place
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way somehow
Hold me close, close, close
We're losing time, time, time
We're losing time, time, time
We're falling to the ground

We are young, we are one
Let us shine for what it's worth
To your place, place, place
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way
Hold me close
We're losing time
Hold me close
We're falling to the ground

Taxi drive the sun is rising
Damn the sirens, keep on driving
Flashing light, oh what a night
I miss her bed, I lost my head
And it's sunning, we're still running
For her rooftop, our last stop
Barefoot, naked, don't you let me go

To your place, place, place
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way somehow
Hold me close, close, close
We're losing time, time, time
We're losing time, time, time
We're falling to the ground

We are young, we are one
Let us shine for what it's worth
To your place, place, place
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way, way, way
We're on our way

Hold me close, we're losing time
Hold me close, we're falling to the ground
