Script..thing.

All the, small things,
True care, truth brings
I'll take, one lift
 Your ride, best trip
 Always, I know
You'll be at my show
Watching, waiting
Commiserating
Say it ain't so
I will not go
Turn the lights off
Carry me home
Na, na, na
Late night, come home
Work sucks, I know
She left me roses by the stairs
Surprises let me know she cares
Say it ain't so
I will not go Turn the lights off Carry me home
Na, na, na
Say it ain't so I will not go, Turn the lights off Carry me home
Keep your head still I'll be your thrill The night will go on My little windmill
Say it ain't so I will not go Turn the lights off Carry me home
Keep your head still I'll be your thrill The night will go on My little windmill

BLINK 182 - ALL THE SMALL THINGS LYRICS

Opening Scene -  My idea is the beginning should have an Establishing Shot of the tennis court then in a pan from left to right (still in the same shot) then an another Establishing Shot taking place right after of the hallways. Another possible idea is that before the start of the song is to have very quick snappy shots of the band members, For example; The first one of the bottom of the guitar with the guitarists hand on it, the second of the drummers feet and the pedal on the drum and the last one of the Singer’s mouth near the microphone.

Live Sequences- My ideas for shots for this in include a medium two shot, with the singer in the front, but slightly to the side, with the other band member behind him out of focus, then switching so that the other member is in focus and the singer is out of focus.  Another idea that I got from Slipknot’s Sulphur (Different genre I know) is that for the guitar to have a small camera on the bottom or top so that you can get some really shaky erratic shots. Also we could do something similar with the drum kits with having a camera on the foot pedal.

Narrative ideas – Plenty of ideas that mostly revolve around shot reverse shots of the boy and girl, whether they are crossing each other’s path etc etc. (Think of the typical school hallway when a boy and girl glance at each other) other ideas. Another idea is that as the girl walks down the hallways she is tracked side by side with the camera, showing her walk along the corridor.

Other ideas such as them meeting up with the band near the end of the performance, or even meeting up in the live performance bit in front of the band. Also another idea would be to have some ‘cameo’ appearances of the band members within the clip such as bumping into the protagonists or swearing or whatever.

Note: Reece made a good point that if we are unable to get enough people for our video, we could reuse for other roles etc such as the lead singer for the Male in the narrative.
