Duration: 03:25

Audience

The video will contain language that may not be suitable for very small children. It will mainly appeal to a teenage audience, both male and female. Also it may appeal to people into hip-hop / rap

Resume

We are giving the video a narrative, which includes members of our group acting it out as the singers Professor Green and Lily Allen. The narrative is based on the lyrics which we interpreted as an argument based on a rocky relationship between the two.

The narrative will include scenes of the couple together and then arguing, one scene in particular will be of the couple in a coffee shop and the person acting as Lily Allen will storm out of the coffee shop and walk down the street. This will include various shots such as Close-Ups, Tracking Shot and Mid –Shots. There will be shots of “Lily Allen” and “Professor Green “On the phone to one another, walking towards and through a park.

We will need to ask permission from a coffee shop nearby preferably with sofas, if we can film some of the music video there.

Key locations

We will be filming in many locations. These include, Alexandra Park, Manchester City centre, Market Street, Loreto College, Coffee Shop.

(Alexandra Park – Tilt shot)

We will need a third performer, someone who will play a girl that is distracting “Professor Green” to show his lack of commitment within the relationship. The shots will include a Tilt – shot of the girl and Close Up shots of “Professor Green”.

We will also be filming some other scenes in the park of the couple sat together on a bench and walking down the park.
