Pitch and treatmentBy Zoe, Lauren and Abby

What does our music video contain?

•There is a relationship between visuals that is illustrating as well as contradicting the lyrics (Goodwin)•We’ve ignored common narrative and gone for something completely different – i.e using dolls instead of people to twist the narrative a bit•Target Audience- Mainly aimed at teenagers due to the popular Indie genre which is seen most favoured by them. This could be seen as ironic as the video contains the use of Barbies, giving it a childish, carefree feel, like in Matt the Electrician – All I know. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnBlCkAzbiU•Our song is called ‘She’s All Angles’ by The Sleepless.

•Decided to use stop-motion and live action (possibly) – makes the video come to life, effective, different.•Abstract/narrative•Indie genre•Narrative- Perhaps have a girl playing with the barbies, dreaming about her ‘dream man’ and the barbies come to life

and creates a narrative which matches the lyrics. The barbie is going through her daily routine, see’s the man she has a ‘crush’ on – all using stop motion, hand-made backgrounds and cut-outs that will move along with the doll as her day progresses.

Conventions we’re going to use are: •Bright and happy tone, matching the tone of ‘She’s All Angles’.•Extreme close ups and long shots •Fast paced•Colourful costumes (for the dolls), if we decide to use live action, their costumes will be colourful too.•Lighting – artificial use of key and back lighting in close up shots to provide a ‘halo’ like effect on the performer/actor•Influences - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10YmixzFSDw – influenced us because of the use of barbies and stop motion.

•An upbeat, catchy indie song, with a catchy and fun chorus"•Our idea - very out of the box, fun and lighthearted. •Appealing to indie lovers, teens and a younger audience, barbies are symbolic of femininity and girliness, also childish. Hopefully amusing and Ironic.• A mix of stopmotion and live action. •She's all angles will be shown on the screen•Cardboard cut outs will be used•We’ve decided to have live action, and our idea has not completely changed, but changed quite a bit.
