Potential music video treatment

Band/ Artist: Gary Jules

Song: Falling awake

Star Image:

• Very basic/ just a man and his guitar (the main  image is a lack of image)
• Poignant
• Image is based on solely the music as opposed to physical apearence
• Acoustic

Treatment for music video:

·        The artist sits in a crowded street playing the song, quietly to himself with his guitar.

·        People pass by  and no one stops (fast motion)

·        However as particular individuals pass him by, the camera will follow them into their own mental flashback that is relevant to the lyrics the artist sung as the walked by.

·        The shot keeps returning to the artist but continues to pick up on the people walking by (who still don’t notice him). This shows that what he sings is relevant to everybody but that we don’t have time to hear other people.

·        The video would close on a very simple shot of the artist and his guitar once again, before he gets up, leaving the guitar and walks away.
