LYRIC ANALYSIS
WHAT SHOTS AM I GOING TO USE
CONVEY THE MESSAGE OF THE
LYRICS
As you can see above I did
some analysis of story the
lyrics were trying to convey.
I want the lyrics to heavily
influence the narrative.
As most the lyrics
suggest alcoholism I
want to include a lot of
shots of alcohol and
drinking.
I will show a male
being physically
abused in my video
but I only want to
elude to abuse.
The abuse is
portrayed in two
different aspects.
Frist alcohol abuse
and the second
physical abuse
from a partner
NARRATIVE IN DEPTH
• Before I wanted to just show an male in an abusive relationship. However
studying the lyrics in depth showed me that the abuse the person in the
song suffers is by alcohol personified as a abusive partner.
• I want to show this in my music video as it ’s a very interesting concept.
Not only is it interesting but its also covering a subject that ’s not covered
often and that is male domestic violence.
• To elude to the fact that the alcohol is being personified I want to show the
male drinking after every act of abuse. This will hopefully show that the
abuse leads to alcohol and also the alcohol leads to abuse.
• I don’t want to show the face of the abuser however this will be hard to
avoid. This is because I don’t want the abuser to have an identity, I want
them to be mysterious so the audience feels distant from the abuser and
sympathises more with the male.
