Planning.

When we had to decide what we wanted to do we didn't really have to think to be honest, we had already done a music video for our extended project which meant we knew how to go about it. So now we had chosen to do the music video we had to decide what song to do. This did take a while and we did pick a song which was Snow patrol - You could be happy. We had an idea in mind and we knew our story line but once we had drawn up the storyboards, it started to dawn on us that it was extremely boring and stereotypical, we didn't like the idea of being conventional or run of the mill like some other A level students can be. So we began to brain storm.

Eventually something just happend and I thought of a Super Hero theme, I don't know why but I did. This really got our imaginations flowing and the storyline just wrote its self. We chose Snow Patrol - Open Your Eyes as the song was just perfect for our idea.

The idea was that we would portray Iron Man as a normal kind of guy, who wanted to fit in but the rest of society just wouldn't allow it. Until he meets a girl who shows some empathy and take pity if you like. This starts to change things for him and they organise a party for him, to show that he has finally been accepted.


After this we didn't really do much more planning, we just jumped straight in and filmed. This was possibly why we were very unorganised and always blagging the shots although this isn't very clear in the video due to its high quality. Many of the shots were 'off the cuff' and spur of the moment. We were very lucky to have creative members in the group as these individuals were the making of this video.
