Filming is now complete on the music video and editing has begun, I have three drafts of the video so far, one is without the black and white effect (which is needed) the second is with the black and white and the third is with the new story edit. The links to these are posted below.

The premise of the music video is about one of the band members (Joe) who is carrying his guitar, he sits down on a park bench to read the paper. The band manager then comes along and see’s him there, telling him to hurry up the manager steals his paper, so Joe begins to chase the manager. We then cut to an shot of an old man (who is played by Max) walking up steep hill, the drummer Aaron walks past him and begins to help him up the hill. Cut back to the previous scene Joe comes back without paper he gets to the bench and see’s that his guitar is now missing! In a rush he runs around looking for it, up high and low. We cut again to see Aaron still helping the old man up the hill. The manager runs past him and tells him to hurry up. The next 2 shots are Joe looking round for his guitar then Aaron finally dropping the old man off at the nearest bench!

We then cut to see where the rest of the band are, they are enjoying a game of pool with three unknown people who turn out to be a nuisance! This scene consists of the gang playing pool, and having fun. One of the unknown people steals Mollie’s hat while they are talking at the bar, the manager then comes in and tells them to hurry up.. Cut back to Joe, he is talking to the old man from the start, crying because he hasn’t got his guitar and that he is late. He looks down and realises it is the old man who stole the guitar, he throws the old man down steep hill and runs off with his guitar.

They arrive to the concert just on time, but as the band are all set up and ready Mollie realises she hasn’t got her hat, the manager see’s and opens his briefcase, inside is a hat perfect for our character! He throws it and she catches it just in time for the music drop. The rest of the song is performance based.
