Final performance

For the final performance we decided to use a stage. This works well with the song and video as the band will be able to show much of their passion through this performance set up, but like in a concert. The back drop is black which will work well with the lighting and creating a bolder image for the band on stage, making them stand out. 

After watching a number of amplification music video, I started thinking about how we could possibly bring the narrative and performance together. I got inspiration from Taylor Swift's video, 'Mine'. In this video, when she is performing she is surrounded by pictures of her and the male love interest within the narrative. We also debated using pictures of the couple in our narrative to draw connections to a happier time in their relationship.  I think we could using the same sort of idea used in the video; we could use long string and attack pictures of the couple to the end. We could then attach these to the hooks in the ceiling over the stage. I think we should experiment with test shots before starting the actual shoot to make sure it gives the correct image. 

Example from Taylor Swift's video:
I think this would be suitable for our performance as it would once more create a greater understanding of the narrative , enabling the audience to connect with the song and band on a deeper level.
