Pitch for Song Chosen

Our chosen song of preference was Ne-yo - Future in You.

Music promo video
For our music promo video, we are looking to base our video on Ne-yo's other videos, the way we will do this is by getting our main actor to wear smart clothing including a trilby hat and other smart accessories. On terms of location, we are looking to film the video in a restuarant-looking place or even better an actual restaurant, for other parts of the video clip we will have the main actor singing at the camera in a similar location to the restaurant so perhaps in the restrooms or just standing up in the restaurant. All the actors involved in the filming will be dressed smartly to fit the image of a restaurant in scene.

Props
  • Table/chairs (for restaurant scenario)
  • Flower/Rose to give to the girl
  • Hat
  • Suit
  • Food/Drink (restaurant scenario)
Links to Genre
To link our video to its corresponding genre we will do the common feature of r&b videos which is to have a man with a woman who he expresses his feelings too.

Goodwin
To employ Goodwin's theorem into our music video we will have a woman in the video as this is common with Ne-yo's videos and also in R&B love music videos. Also, we will attempt to make a visual to lyrical representation when our Ne-yo actor is on screen solo by relating his body language to the lyrics of the song (for example, there will be moments when Ne-yo will point at the camera as in to point at the girl and tell her he wants a future in her). Also we will attempt to get solo shots of the piano being played by one of the actors so we can have a music to visual relationship. To meet the demands of the record label, we will get our main actor to wear a trilby hat because this is a common accesory of Ne-yo that he wears in the majority of his videos.
