lots of the streets music videos are done straight to the camera and like a story tell way as lots of the songs are stories. I going to keep with this theme by having one person singing along to the song walking along a road being filmed from a car. Keeping with the UK garage theme it is going to filmed in a ruff looking estate as the lyrics to the song give it a ruff and hard feel "Going through hell". Key lines are going to be acted out to give it a bit more going on for example the line "I wouldn't say a word till I've walked a mile in your shoes(the actor would take his shoe off while walking and singing and show it to the camera),But once a mile from you,(then would just chuck it behind him).
There is also going to be shots from a studio that i can use which will be someone singing and recording the song. This shot will mostly be used for the chorus of the song but also can be used for other lines. I think these two ideas edited together will work really well as it will have the feel of a UK garage song and the same kind of theme as a Streets music video but will also show that this song is a serious and real song and show how The streets are serious about their music which they have in their music videos.
One of the things i am uncertain on is to film the bits in the street in the day or the night where the night will give it a better fitting into the song as its pretty dark but the lighting would be hard to do in the street if we are going to be constantly be moving.
I will also film other shots like the housing estate by its self and in the studio the mixing desk so if they are needed to be put in then i can to fill a apart of the song. The housing estate shot by its self will be used for the establishing shot for the music video.
