Boards/Style My Thoughts

Hey guys, included below is my initial ideas. Please let me know what you think, likes/dislikes or whatever. Thanks!

Positive Movement, by the MTHDS explores the transformative power of music on the band’s life, as the lyrics dip and sway from past to present.


My treatment of their song involves three separate stages of development:

1.     Establishing the band in an urban setting

2.     Visiting the nostalgic memories which shape their perceptions, which

3.     Set the stage for their big concert at The Bluebird for their new CD



My style will focus on the disorienting effect of macro photography to create abstract and aesthetically pleasing video footage of the band, their instruments, old furniture and stereos representing their youth, as well as their concert scheduled for November 5th. I believe that through shallow depth of field I can capture the essence of the band rather than the cliché and typical music videos currently offered. This is experimental in the sense that it doesn’t have a clearly presented narrative, although it does contain an implied narrative based upon the lyrics contained in the song itself, and the dichotomies created between the two.
