PLANNING - Star Image


















Clothing - dull colours
               - always covered with hoody
               - gangster look, not smart or decent



             








Props - coffee cup
           - coffee table
           - sofa
           - chair
           - lights
           - paintings
           - benches

















Action - running
            - walking
            - starring at others
            - lip syncing





Theme - isolation
            - contrast of urban/rural (nature)












I have created a list of the things I used to crate my star's image and how I got all the ideas for it. First of all, I had to think of a narrative which can be related to the lyrics of the song. Then I had to think of the star image for my artist which can reflect on the lyrics and the narrative. The song is very unique as its pace changes from slow to fast in between and the lyrics are about running.

The album itself is called Golden Age which relates to the idea of running away from urbanisation and get closer to the nature. Therefore, I further enhanced this idea to show a paranoid boy who is running away from the city to get more closer to nature. To make him look paranoid, I have shown him in dark colours such as grey jacket and he is always wearing the hoody on to make him look more authentic to match with his character.

The props I have used helped to make the video more realistic. It also helped to make the music video much more interesting visually and to understand the theme more.

The actions also helped to make the music video look much more visually interesting for the audience. And it helps the audience to understand the narrative and move the plot forward. In my music video, I have shown the boy running, lip-syncging and starring at others which helps to shape his character and the audiences can get to know what is he doing and why he is doing that.

The theme is reflected through all the things suggested above. The clothing, props, actions and the song itself help to portray the theme of the music video to get the message across to the audience of the narrative of the music video and what it is all about in order to understand the start image.
