Chosen song for music video and other info

Pale Waves - 'Kiss'

For the music video I was very stuck on what song to choose, especially due to the broad spectrum of songs that could be classified as ‘dance’ genre. After some hard deliberation, and hours of useless thought processes, whilst listening to music so that hopefully something would spark an interest and video ideas, 'Kiss' by Pale Waves came on. The perfect song. I love the bands music, I have many ideas to which I can put into action throughout the video and I think that I will be able to characterise myself within the video so that it seems like my own song/band.

So I was thinking, with the song choice in mind and available time that I have, I am going to film the video by myself. From looking at previous music videos by those in year 13, I've found that the videos looked much more realistic when the person themselves is in the video alone. I will be much more passionate about giving a believable performance than someone that isn't effected by what grade is awarded to the final product. By doing this also, I will be able to film whenever I have a moment of inspiration.

For the video itself, I want to take inspiration from the original video created by the band but I also want to make the video my own rather than theirs. During production, I would like to film in a variety of locations; shots of the sea front, in fields, dimly lit rooms. I also want to include the sunset, I feel that the song relates more to sunsets than the day time, so I'm planning on some silhouette shots with the sunset in the background and sunsets at the beach/seafront.
