Group - Concept Progression

Since our last blog post on the subject we have made some significant advancements in the depth and detail of our concept. In out meeting today we outlined the following points:

• We have decided that our video will have three distinct lines of action. The performance section, which will take place in the theatre that we are still trying to acquire, a narrative section following the protagonist's experience as she tries to recover from her vampire experience, which we outlined as essentially a hangover induced by drinking blood instead of alcohol, and another narrative section which serves as a flashback showing how she consumed the blood. 
• These three sections will be inter-cut throughout the video. As the song approaches its conclusion the three lines of action will converge. After drinking the blood she arrives home and falls unconscious, leading us into the bed sequence. The bend sequence is ended by her noticing the time and having to rush to get ready and get to the theatre to perform.
• The video as a whole should follow three acts. The first should be the singer beginning her song and starting to vaguely outline some of the events. The second should show these events in detail and culminate in the merging of the three lines of action. The third act will show her getting to the theatre, but on the way having growing urges to consume more blood. it will show the final part of her performance and end with her becoming transfixed by her desire to drink the blood of the audience. 
• We also made some progress with mapping out the shots and their timings with the video, and this is where we hope to continue our development of our concept from now on.
