The document outlines a plan for a music video to accompany a song about a woman waiting for her boyfriend at her birthday party. It proposes using both narrative and performance elements. For the narrative sections, the artist will be shown at the party visually upset as time passes and her boyfriend doesn't arrive. For the performance sections, the artist will sing straight to the camera, showing the emotion on her face. The video concludes with the realization that her boyfriend will never be there, shown through her walking away.

TASK 10: LYRICS PLANNING By Farida Islam
You should've been there, Should've burst through the door, With that 'baby I'm right here' smile, And it would've felt like, A million little shining stars had just aligned, And I would've been so happy. ? As this is the first verse in the song I think it would suit being a performance. My artist would be looking into the distance away from the camera singing. Thus appearing to be lost in thought like she is retelling a story. Christmas lights glisten, I've got my eye on the door, Just waiting for you to walk in, But the time is ticking, People ask me how I've been As I comb back through my memory, How you said you'd be here, You said you'd be here. ? During this verse narrative will be used in the video. In this shot the my artist will be shown at a dinner with her friends staring at the door waiting. There will then be a shot of the clock letting the audience know what the time is. This references the lyrics eye on the door and time is ticking.
And it was like slow motion, Standing there in my party dress, In red lipstick, With no one to impress, And they're all laughing, As I'm looking around the room, But there's one thing missing, And that was the moment I knew. And the hours pass by, Now I just wanna be alone, But your close friends always seem to know When there's something really wrong, So they follow me down the hall, And there in the bathroom, I try not to fall apart, And the sinking feeling starts, As I say hopelessly, "He said he'd be here." ? This part of the chorus would be best visually shown as narrative. My artist will be shown visibly not having a good time whilst all her friends are. ? It will then go to a performance of the girl looking into the camera singing. Thus showing the emotion on her face reflecting on the lyrics. ? For this part of the verse narrative will used and there will be a shot of the girl in the bathroom with friends. She will then admit to them whats bugging her. This references As I say hopelessly He said hed be here.
And it was like slow motion, Standing there in my party dress, In red lipstick, With no one to impress, And they're all laughing, And asking me about you, But there was one thing missing, And that was the moment I knew. What do you say When tears are streaming down your face In front of everyone you know? And what do you do when the one Who means the most to you Is the one who didn't show? You should've been here. And I would've been so happy. ? This time for the chorus it will be a switch between both narrative and performance. I think this will suit the lyrics as there will be a visual to them i.e. the dinner. Also the performance will show the artist describing what is happening. ? For the artist to be able to show emotion and make the audience relate to what she is singing, I think that performance would be most suitable. My artist would be singing to the camera so that the audience can feel every word and see the emotion across her face.
And it was like slow motion, Standing there in my party dress, In red lipstick, With no one to impress, And they're all standing around me singing "Happy birthday to you", But there was one thing missing, And that was the moment I knew. ? This part of the song will be narrative. A long shot will be used to show that the dinner was the girls birthday. Her friends will be surrounding her singing Happy birthday, whilst she is gazing at the door. This references but there was one thing missing. Ooh, I knew. Ooh, You called me later, And said, "I'm sorry, I didn't make it," And I said, "I'm sorry too," And that was the moment I knew. And that was the moment I knew. ? To conclude the song this verse will use performance. My artist will be having the realisation that her boyfriend is never going to be there. The ending will be her walking away i.e. walking away from him.
