Video Pitch

The video will centre around simplistic but intresting camra angles and a wide range of close ups, with a simple backdrop, we will use drums, bass guitars and electric guitars and use our close ups on them and there players but we will use unconventional close ups on guitar straps, feet and hands of for example the singer holding the mic and of idle objects such as amps and leads.

with the start of the track we just have the guitar playing so for instance we would have a close up of the guitar players hand and him picking the strings and maybe a close up of the drummer waiting to kick in, and we will see the drummer about to come in but as his sticks go towards the snare, we will cut to the bassist playing, and then concentrate on the lead singer when the lyrics come in.

Three way split screen (two square, and one wide shot), this would be used throughout every chorus, and is alternated throughout the chorus, around the screen.

At the end come out of the conventions of the rest of the video and pan out on the band so we see a wide shot of the whole band together once the last note is played.
