Performance Ideas

After having reviewed some sets of existing music videos, we have decided to have a performance in the studio and also one in a public car park in Guildford if possible. We brainstormed lots of different ideas to shoot in the studio and the car park:

Studio Performance

• Possible different terrain levels in the studio; having each band member on a different block at different heights, then the band would all switch positions in time with the drum beat in the track.
• Have a projection of leaves/jungle in the background of the band, having the projections also hit the band in the process to create something visually appealing.
• Possibly have the drum kit setup on a rotating circular shape, so the drummer could be spinning around as the song went on
• Have each terrain block be covered in ghilli-suit like material, to match with the projections in the background and to create a jungle atmosphere. 
• Have the band dress up in some sort of jungle attire, to again match with the song.

Car Park Performance

Picture of the car park we would like to have:

• Have the band play in front of parked cars, possibly with their doors open and their alarms going off, which could be used to illustrate the danger and threatening atmosphere of a jungle.
• Have the band spread out across a large area of the car park, playing far apart from each other and possibly create separate backgrounds for each of the member, possibly a red background for the drummer, yellow for the singer etc.
• Use a drone to get cool hovering shots of each band member in the car park.

We have also taken inspiration from the Foo Fighters video 'The Pretender', as our idea of having some sort of security trying to interrupt the band is the main theme involved in their music video.
