Snow Patrol connects to most rock bands which they rather perform in their music videos instead of having a storyline to show their skills and what they capable of. However, we decided to do something unique by having a narrative and interpretive lyric so it looks high standard and meaningful. Snow patrol’s music videos have various editing techniques which are usually shot live during concerts. They usually have fade and snow cutting effects. A very interesting video which is Snow Patrol - Take Back The City, they have used stop motion which makes the audience more interested.

This is around the time in the video where things get similar to ours. She goes home, takes a bottle full of pills and come the end of the song, hangs herself. The song turns out the be about his deceased girlfriend and how he misses her (but he doesn’t miss the arguments they had). There are similarities within the Video for Coldplay in the sense of the lyrics showing expressions of missing somebody close to them, and the grievance of wanting a loved one back. The music video is also similar to our storyboard in the terms that we are have the woman taken away from us before her time, and the male role would be lost in the woods. The difference between the music videos is that Coldplay have done theirs filmed in reverse, we will be showing ours in the current time frame and clips of the past in remembrance of the love they shared together BAiDKOqfvc qWLpTKBFcU

The story line of this song is about a man who’s going to try his life somewhere new, and his lover is heartbroken. However, she says she will not stop him and she’s giving him all her good wishes. Rihanna’s song Farewell gives the audience a feeling of fear and independency this is why I decided to expand this video with messages and commit lyric interpretive. I have an idea in my head of a man walking looking unhappy on the side of a road, surrounded by fields. I imagine the weather being overcast and gloomy, and maybe raining. I think that as the song progresses the weather should improve to represent a more positive outlook. The song we are most probably doing is ‘You could be happy’ by Snow Patrol.
