Task 1: My first Idea

My first idea is using a song called "Told her", this is by a Soundcloud artist named st4n. This artist is an old friend of mine, I feel his music would be perfect for a music video and also this would hopefully give his music a bit more recognition.
As he is a very small artist he doesn't have any music videos as he told me this would be too expensive for him to film and he doesn't have the correct equipment to film.

     The main character in this music video I think should have a gothic/emo look with lots of jewellery and unusual hair style. The beginning of the video will start with the artist sitting on a sofa with his head deep in his hands looking very frustrated and upset, the shot will then move to a coffee table next to the sofa with a phone which keeps getting texts and phone calls from a girl. The artist will then look up at the camera and start singing the song looking directly into the camera.
The character will then stand up while still singing the song and the camera will use a tracking shot to capture this, will walk out the door. I want the whole video to seem as if its one continuous shot, so when he walks out of the door the other side of the door will be a forest. This is very hard to explain but will be very similar concept to the scene in the movie "The lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe" I feel if this is done well it will be very effective.















In the forest the main character will be walking around the forrest looking up at the tree while carrying on singing to the camera.
After this the main character will go through the same door he came out of but instead of walking into a living room he will walk onto a stage with very bright luminous lights with a big crowd appreciating this character.
In the song a rapper is featured with a very different voice which is more rap. When the main character is on stage the rapper heard in the song will come on stage and start singing his part of the song. I want him to have a bit of a different style and in the video really hype up the crowd. At the end part of the song when just the main character is on stage I want the camera to pan around the artist while he's still singing and when the camera comes back to where the crowd was to have absolutely no one standing where the crowd used to be.

I want the video to give off this impression that the main character was imagining this whole experience and I feel the ending of this video will portray this.
The main character in the video I feel should be wearing a very basic outfit like jeans and a white top.
I imagine that the rapper that comes on will be wearing very expensive, hyped items and to have a few fake tattoos on his face giving off this stereotypical "Soundcloud" rapper.
The artist I feel has a very similar style to Lil Peep who was a sound cloud rapper who tragically died after overdosing.

The start of the song, main character sleeping on a sofa.

He then walks through a door in the living room.












The door which he goes through brings him into a dense forest, very similar idea to "The lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe"




He then walks around the forest and goes back through the door.

 The other side of the door is this stage with a large audience, the character starts performing to the crowd and another character comes on to rap part of the song.

 The camera comes around and starts focusing on just the character close to the end of the song.

As the camera starts to come back around there's not a single person watching the artist and the song finishes.
