It is widely believed that this song is about the issue of suicide."Im holding on your rope got me ten feet of the ground","you tell me that you need me then you go and cut me down". So from this interpretation I then started getting ideas into my head of what I would like to include in my music video. I wanted it to be about three best friends, two men and one woman. Man 1 is with the woman but at the same time she is dating his best friend man 2. At the beginning of the video you'd see man 1 arguing with the woman and then storming off. The next shot would be both the men shouting at each other and fighting outside in the street. Man 1 would be singing. The cuts would be of man 1 singing and then flashbacks (in black and white) to the times where he was happy with the woman: pushing her on the swings in the park, walking holding hands, having a meal in a restaurant, watching a film indoors etc. Towards the end of the song, man 1 would hang himself in his and his best friends house, you wouldn't actually see the hanging but you would see either the feet of the man or the shadow of the hanging. It would then end with man 2 and the woman finding man 1 dead.
Camera angles, shots, editing and mise-en-scene that would be used:
- 360 degree turn
- Long shots
- Medium close-ups
- Bird's eye view
- Zoom in
- Zoom out
- Pan left
- Pan right
- 180 degree turn
- Fade
- Dissolve
- Flash
- Clothing: Man 1- white t-shirt, blue jeans, black hoody, white trainers.
- Clothing: Man 2- black t-shirt, blue jeans, navy blue hoody, black trainers.
- Clothing: Woman- smart dress with cardigan.
- Locations: My house, the park, the woods, bluewater.
I decided not to go along with this idea as I came up with a much better idea.
