Song Choice Pitch

So before we could proceed to further develop our music video. We had to pitch our song to members of the class as well as our teacher. In this pitch, we had to give reasons as to why we thought  that 'The Kids Aren't Alright' by Fallout Boy was the best song for us.

Here is a copy of our presentation:

This is the feedback which we received from our pitch:

Fall Out Boy, The Kids Aren’t Alright

It’s okay to mess up, you’ll still be fine

Ideas

References to black and darkness                                                                                                                                     

Colour is going to be very important?

1.       Love is like a drug (Found Love in a Hopeless Place?)  Love is addictive

2.       Lonely man turns to drugs – he has a made up relationship  (this is very like one of my last group’s videos – it was partially effective)

Very conservative and safe

Questions

Does Morality make you sound a bit Christian Rock?

Why are they staying together? Is it because its a passionate relationship? What makes them stay?
You need to refine the story line a bit more - put some meat on the bones and start to come up with a structured story.
Be more adventurous with the filming locations. The drama hall will only work if it is used well.

Narrative 1:

Will this need to be very passionate and sexy for it to be worth them sticking together?  How would you do this?

Narrative 2:

How will you make this exciting?

Your big focus is making this more creative and exciting.
