Initial Ideas and decisions

The music video we have decided to do is Stan. we have chosen this for a number of reasons with the first and foremost being its links to Stalker narratives which fits quite firmly with our choice. The Dark nature of the lyrics in particular make it ideal to use without us necessarily having to exactly replicate what the lyrics are saying "Dear Slim, I wrote but you still ain't callin I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom"

However there were complications when making the video, for example, the original contains almost 6 minutes of footage which is almost certainly too much for our group to do, as a consequence we have decided too edit the music quite to fit into the 3-4 minute window. another complication the group faced is whether to digitally add Rain into some of the shots in order to create pathetic fallacy, However at this moment in time it has been decided that doing this at this moment in time more stress than it is worth and has as such been removed

The basic story of the plot is as follows with the video basically centering around an event in the present were the former bully victim has discovered the Stalker and the events that have led up to it. We intend to show numerous flashbacks at the Stalkers repeated frustrations at the the former bullies lack of interest in him.
