Pitch Idea Based On Lyrics

Lights - Ben Pavitt

Running fast, fast for a life

Taking our moments and living right

Cos we saw freedom it had no pride

Tonight we’re gonna survive

So turn on the lights yeah we’re ready tonight yeah we’re not scared to fight

Cos we’ve got one life yeah we’re ready to party and we’re feeling alive

Try and stop us make it happen cos we’re running wild

The city is dreaming our body is screaming only one chance tonight

Only, one chance, tonight

Yeah they turn to me and say

The sky’s a limit and we’re not dead

So let’s go crazy tonight is day

Cos baby tonight were gonna live this away

So turn on the lights yeah we’re ready tonight yeah we’re not scared to fight

Cos we’ve got one life yeah we’re ready to party and we’re feeling alive

Try and stop us make it happen cos we’re running wild

The city is dreaming our body is screaming only one chance tonight (x2)

Stars in our eyes

Under, this ordinary moonlight

Our skeleton shaking

This life were making

This world is mine

This world is mine

 

So turn on the lights yeah we’re ready tonight yeah we’re not scared to fight

Cos we’ve got one life yeah we’re ready to party and we’re feeling alive

Try and stop us make it happen cos we’re running wild

The city is dreaming our body is screaming only one chance tonight (x3)

 

So, are you alive?

Pitch Idea

The lyrics to the song we have chosen to make a music video for a shown above. The basic plot of this song is being sung from the point of view Ben, the artist we have chosen to make a music video for, he is singing about growing up and being a teenage who is going through a phase in his life where he is finding himself along with all of his friends. This has made us want to base our video at a party as it will link well with the lyrics and we will be able to display many sections of the lyrics with the visuals in our video. We have also decided to film our video at night a he mentions the time of day being 'tonight' multiple times. Due to the song be very slow and instrumental throughout we are considering putting any shot that contains Ben in black and white, and also making some shots of people at the party in slow motion so it fits with the tempo and rhythm of the song. We also want the themes of the video to juxtapose each other at many points, we are going to make Ben an emotionally struggling character in the video, while everyone else in the video is in normal or happy moods, showing how he is struggling with his emotions and this part in his life.
