Initial Idea




  • After messing around with some of my previous initial ideas, this is one of my favourites.
  • Little Boots, Meddle is a song that hasn't reached the charts and doesn't have any existing copyrighted music videos on YouTube.
  • Lyrics such as 'don't go messin with a heart or messin with a mind', 'I'm a mixed up girl in a mixed up world' imply that the singer is in emotional turmoil
  • We could continue the theme of disorder, and of the artist's head being in a mess by shooting our video in reverse, which would create the effect of a mixed up or crazy world. For example, if we were to film our main character walking backwards, and everyone around her walking forwards, this when played in reverse would have the effect of her walking forwards whilst everything surrounding her is backwards.
  • We would have to be careful that it would not look tacky, or that it wouldn't be too difficult to accomplish within the time constraints and other restrictions regarding equipment etc., but it has been done before and is certainly possible given the correct time and planning.
  • Spike Jonze's' music video for The Pharcyde, 'Drop' is shot entirely in reverse and has an effective end result, as is Coldplay's the scientist. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcX7Zweqgc0&feature=related, embedding for this video is disabled).
