1st pitch- A dark congregation- The Hush Sound

Initial ideas

• A mixture of animation and real life to keep the audience entertained as it is more varied.
• Opening of her walking down stairs
• Walking through somewhere busy with the background moving faster than the singer. 
• By having the girl alone could be used to show her independence, or lonliness depending on the lyrics to the song.
• Lights can be used to show emotions. I.e. bright colours for more upbeat, darker lighting for more sad songs.
• Close ups to display emotions

Indie/Alternative Genre

With Indie bands, the videos usually consist of showing mainly the lead singer, which in the case of The Hush Sound is a female. They also quite often follow a story, depending on the lyrics of the song. The videos also usually include some scenes of the band performing the song. The indie genre often display a range of different sounds and emotions compared to some mainstream music. The videos can sometimes consist of a mixture of animation and real footage to keep the audience watching due to the fact there is more variation.

Influential videos

 

Paramore's video is influencial as it combines a mixture of a 'story' following the lyrics of the song. However, there are also scenes of the band performing the song which displays emotion. Close ups of the singers face also display the strong sense of how she is feeling.





Yeah Yeah Yeah's also have the same make up as The Hush Sound and Paramore, a female lead singer, with a male band. This video is mainly made up of a performance of the song, but many close ups show the different emotions on the lead singers face.
