Synopsis by Jo

Our video begins with a boy waking up and getting ready for school. The colours in the beginning of the video will be dull and this will emphasise the way in which the character's life is heading. As the song is about changing your life for the better, we decided to show the boy living a rebellious life that was going nowhere. He gets attracted by alcohol and smoking and gets kicked out of school. However, in order to show the lyrics relating to the visuals, when the line "This Groundhog day goes round" is sung, we decided to have the video start again with all the same shots. But the overall theme will have changed in order to emphasise how his life has changed. The bright colours will also show this so that it is evident to the audience. To finish the video we decided to use the green screen and create the impression that the boy has turned his life around and is now in a successful band that is slowly conquering the worlds music industry, ending in Hollywood, a notoriously hard place to succeed. This then shows the swap between the narrative and performance aspects of the video, as most indie videos tend to have a bit of both.
