Potential Song Choice 2 For Music Video


Watch this space by Britannia High

The original show of Britannia High was targeted at teenagers aged 13 upwards, and it was to show the message to always b yourself and to follow your dreams. The musical TV Drama is set in a performing arts school where various music videos are shown to keep the pace of the storylines, also to keep to the fact that the characters are students at the performing arts school.

My idea for a video for ‘Watch This Space’ is a narrative for two school girls in competition for the main role in the school production. The opening scene will be the two girls both going to pick up the audition script for the man part. There is only one script on display to which the girls both go to pick it up. With Both girls with their hands on the script they hold a very long, evil stare at each other. The scene ends with the teacher handing out another copy to which the girls pause again with the dirty looks and hurry off into different directions.

The main reason for the two main characters being girls is because typically, in schools, from anybodies memory of school, there was always the ‘popular, bitchy girl’ and the girl who did no wrong and got a lot of bother for pathetic reasons such as her looks of her intelligence. The moral of the video will be that people who look down on others and treat people badly will get their punishments whereas people who do no wrong and treat people with respect will get their rewards. This means that the girl who is nasty doesn’t end up with any part in the school production whilst the girl who has had a lot of stick from the nasty girl, ends up with the leading part, gaining all the respect she deserves.

Up to the chorus’ there will be a repeat of the two girls against each other with the nasty girl. They will represent good and bad with the nasty girl dressed in red and black like the devil and the good girl dressed in white and gold representing an angel. They will sing in time with the lyrics to which the camera will cross cut between them.

In between the performances there will be another scene with the girls preparing for their auditions, standing in front of the mirror trying on various clothes and make up to which the changes switch very quickly.

The last scene will be the two girls running to see the cast list to which the nasty girl rips down the list and storms off. The very last shot will be of the good girl either blowing a kiss or winking directly to the camera as a close up.
