Truth Or Dare developed ideas

Narrative:

A guy chasing a girl, trying to get her back after cheating. Music video involves shots of cars as is a driving song. This relates to Goodwin's point of music relating to visuals. Also the idea of part of the video containing narrative and parts containing performance.


Style:
Rocky style. Dark costume colours, jeans, leather.

Locations: Coffee shop, Bedroom, road (driving)

Meeting demands of record label: Lots of close ups of the artist when performing and drividng in the car.

Genre characteristics: Performance from the artist and band playing

Visuals compliment lyrics as artist acts out these lyrics, eg argueing when lyrics state:every single arguements endless.


Lyrics along with ideas:

Was it easy all along? (driving in car, close up of artist looking in mirror)

As the days went on and on, (wide shot of car showing time passing)

Going through the motions,

Holding on to better years (looking through photos of the both of them 'better years')

But now all you'll hear from me

Is a familiar melody,

From the wires to the speakers (wires in car going to ears)

To your tired ears

So truth or dare, let me hear it (performance of artist)

Say you'll stay like you mean it (girl talking on phone to artist)

Or don't let go 'til it feels like

Nothing's changed and nothing's wrong

With the things you tried to take

That I need to stay awake, (coffee shop drinking coffee)

That I need to trade

The action for the old routine

So truth or dare, let me hear it

Say you'll stay like you mean it (shot of artist and girl being intimate)

Or don't let go 'til it feels like

Nothing's changed and nothing's wrong

'Cause day by day she's a little

Closer still to the middle,

So kiss and kill me a little (girl kissing artist, close up of both faces)

More and more until you're gone

'Cause every single minute

I'm drowning out there

And every single argument's endless (arguement between artist and girl)

And I know ever indiscretion

Is breaking your heart

And every bad decision

Every bad decision is defenseless

So truth or dare, let me hear it (chorus, performance from artist)

Say you'll stay like you mean it

Or don't let go 'til it feels like

Nothing's changed and nothing's wrong

Cause day by day she's a little (artist and girl together)

Closer still to the middle,

So kiss and kill me a little

More and more until you're gone (artist driving in car)


Visual styles:

I have had a look at some music videos and have taken screen shots of parts of the video which relate to the ideas:


Chris daughtry -No surprise image of artist driving in car, dark colours are used to compliment rock genre.


Nickelback- How you remind me image artist performing to camera and audience, the band are alseo shown in a dark room on a stage.
