Pitch

Costume

Performers:
The performers will have to dress in a hipster fashion. E.g. White vests, checkered shirts, black skinny jeans, beanies and either converse or vans. 

































Slender Man:

Slender man will be dressed according to how he is portrayed in the game “slender; the eight pages” so he will have black trousers, white shirt, red tie and black jacket. We will use a white t-shirt to cover his face.

Performers

We have decided that we will be using members from the group to be performers in the video. Adam Stronge, Adam Woods and Jake Hardwick will be in the video representing the band. We have also managed to find an outside performer who can play the drums for the video. This performer is Adam Stronges brother.

Jake will be the lead singer of the group and will be required to learn the lyrics. Adam Woods will be playing guitar for the performance. He will be playing electric and acoustic guitar. Adam Stronge will be playing bass guitar for the performance.


Influences

“The Marble Hornets” series on Youtube and the popular internet indie game “Slender”. The game slender influenced us because this was the main idea for our sub plot. the influence was that we would use the idea of the game slender and incorporate this into the video.

This is a video by Sum 41. This video gave us influence for structuring our performance and sub plot. This is because this video uses a sub story separate to the performance by the band.

The video "Decode" by Paramore also influenced us because this video uses a forest for the performance and the sub plot which t=is the kind of idea that we are looking to create.



Our basic idea


Our basic idea is to make a performance video with a sub plot involving the urban myth “The Slender Man”.
We chose this idea because we thought that it would make effective intertextuality between the video and the internet game "Slender".

Rough costume effectiveness trials



our story board




 The first thing I did was create Storyboards. i used an an A3 sheet of paper and drew 6 boxes on it, i then drew what i thought my music video would be like in each box. And here is a video I put together to to show my pictures from the Storyboard with the soundtrack at the same time. this will really help with our shooting schedule later
