The majority of our shots will be artistic shots of our character discovering more and more about where he is and why it is important that he is there. We have locations in mind like the woods, forest-like areas and deserted roads to create a creepy atmosphere. Our narrative will be conveying confusion within our character and we also aim to create a plot which will confuse our audience so they are intrigued by our video. After waking up, our character will explore his location and travel throughout the woods until he realises where he is and how he gets home. As well as this there will be a darker, ghostly version of himself who will be leading our character around. The same route will be used as planned but the ghost version will be leading our character around, whilst our original character will be confused as to why he is following himself, but will be going with it anyway. I have been inspired by the beginning scene of the cult film Donnie Darko. At the beginning of the film Donnie is asleep in the middle of the road and upon waking up, he is unsure of how he got there.
Reception Theory, also known as the Encoding/Decoding Model of Communication (Stuart Hall) states that texts are not only passively accepted by audiences but interpreted different depending on the cultural background of the individual audience member. Similar cultures will have similar interpretations on texts and we are hoping our ambiguous music videos will develop multiple ideas and opinions for our music video.
