Brief

For my music video, I have decided to choose the song ‘The Scientist’ by Coldplay to play on the video. I chose the song because it’s quite an emotional song and has a lot of meaning to it therefore there’s a lot of work I could do with the storyline for the video. The words in the song are very powerful and meaningful so I’m going to enjoy working on the video.

To begin with, my ideas changed a lot but I soon decided the idea that I wanted to stick with. I want the video to start off with a girl and boy walking down separate streets about to meet each other and go out for the day. The two streets they’re walking down eventually meet and so do they. You can tell they’re very much in love and happy with each other, the boy, cuddling the girl closes his eyes and when he re-opens them, it shows him many years later. As an old man sitting in his chair he opens his eyes and turns to see the empty chair beside him. The video then ends with a close up of a photograph of the young couple.
