Pitch

Our music video is for the indie/rock genre and will most interest the audience who enjoy this music genre. The song we are doing is ‘Somebody Told Me’ by ‘The Killers’ that is a very popular song in this genre. We chose this song because when we did our questionnaire we asked people who liked indie/rock music what their favourite band was and a lot of people said ‘The Killers’ so we decided to do a song by them. We chose ‘Somebody Told Me’ because it is an upbeat song and is catchy.

We decided to make a music video where the band is performing the song on a stage, and we are going to have cutaway scenes of the bands in different situations including; backstage, signing autographs and listening to a song. We have planned to use a wide variety of camera shots and angles and a lot of editing techniques, we decided to do this to keep the video fresh and to stop the audience from becoming bored. The clothing we are wearing will match the indie/rock genre and the props being used will fuel this convention e.g. microphones, guitars and drums. We will most likely use the lights on the stage for the video to make some atmosphere as if it is a real stage.
