Idea for music video

As a group we have chosen to use ten people or more to mime in our music video. We each are taking turns to take the music video home and shoot some friends/family to mime the lyrics for us then we edit it through "Final Cut Pro" which we have learnt how to use with flash backs to videos already on the system.

Our background video will take place in different locations with different people miming. The locations will take place inside and outdoors which we thought that if we do both not just stick to one location it be more eye catching and interesting to watch.

"Nickelback" INSPIRATION.


We found Nickelback inspirational because in their music video "rockstar" which it was an all time favourites to the audiences back in the day. As a group we found their song interesting and they had a inspirational music video "Rockstar," which they had miming throughout the song which we all liked as a group and decided to do the same but with our own ideas.

Music Video - Lyrics

Lyrics:
Steve walks warily down the street, 
With the brim pulled way down low 
Ain't no sound but the sound of his feet, 
Machine guns ready to go 
Are you ready, Are you ready for this 
Are you hanging on the edge of your seat 
Out of the doorway the bullets rip 
To the sound of the beat 
Chorus 

Another one bites the dust 
Another one bites the dust 
And another one gone, and another one gone 
Another one bites the dust 
Hey, I'm gonna get you too 
Another one bites the dust 

How do you think I'm going to get along, 
Without you, when you're gone 
You took me for everything that I had, 
And kicked me out on my own 

Are you happy, are you satisfied 
How long can you stand the heat 
Out of the doorway the bullets rip 
To the sound of the beat 
Chorus 


Another one bites the dust 
Another one bites the dust 
Another one bites the dust 
Another one bites the dust 
There are plenty of ways you can hurt a man 
And bring him to the ground 
You can beat him 
You can cheat him 
You can treat him bad and leave him 
When he's down 
But I'm ready, yes I'm ready for you 
I'm standing on my own two feet 
Out of the doorway the bullets rip 
Repeating the sound of the beat



New brief - Music Video

The song we have chosen as a group me, Holly and Casey is "Another one bites the dust" by "Queen."
We chose this music video because its a very well known song and the viewers will know the song well. I like the chorus because its easy to sing and the lyrics are catching and funny which i think the audience will like.

What we have decided to do as a group for our music video is find family members or friends miming the lyrics then we are having the song playing in the background. We chose this from our inspiration by "Nickleback" the song "Rockstar."
