Mise En Scene
}Costume/Character: Homeless male, scruffy hair, baggy clothes, old and worn out shoes. Wondering aimlessly, searching for someone to care/love for him.
}Lighting: dark and eerie, dull weather if available.
}Setting: Partly city and partly local, this will convey how the inner city is busy, full of people where no one cares for the homeless.
}Framing: 1 or 2 POV shots to show life from his point of view, tripod will be used to show professionalism, as it will be steady.

Narrative

Begins with a homeless man, sitting alone, isolated, searching his pockets, looking for food, he then realises there is no food left, which motivates him to get up and search for someone to offer him some. This is where he wonders with purpose.

He uses his cardboard sign for sympathy, hoping for someone to care for him, he then encounters a person who shrugs him off.

He then begins to lose a sense of life and hope, and searches for a place to relieve his pain, to contemplate suicide.


Conventions

}Performance- Our Music video will subvert this typical convention, as it will not have any performance
}Length- It will be 3 minutes and 45 seconds long, this follows typical conventions.
}Editing – cuts, special effects
}Hook - The perception of a homeless man in London
}Dramatic Lighting
}Choreography- Again, we subverted this typical convention as there will not be any choreography.
}Costume
}Dull Colours

Reason why we had chosen this music choice:
}We decided to choose this music choice because it has a clear message in the lyrics and the tone.

Unfortunately there was a technical error whilst recording our Pitch, and as a result only the second half of our pitch was recorded. In the first half, all members of the group spoke about the planned music video, including details about mise en scene, setting, research into the track and the plot.

In the second half, we had a q&a with the rest of the class, where we welcomed queries about our planned music video
