idea number two

The title of the song is called 'save the world' so we thought we could go with an approach of two main characters, each going through their day-day routine. E.g. close up shot of their faces coming out of the bath water. This could be done through a split screen so the audience understands that their in two seperate locations. One of the characters will have a depressing era to them such as sitting in dark rooms, not going out much whereas the other will be 'full of life' partying, socialising. The characters will both end up at the same location (southend pier) where the depressed character will contimplate committing suicide over the edge, and the ending will be the other character being there in time to save them.

We will show a significant different between the two characters through the use of colours, speed of editing and the costumes in which they will be wearing. An idea we had was that the depressive characters day would be filmed in black and white to show that there is no colour/happiness in his life, whereas the other characters will be vibrant bright colours to represent happiness/life.

One of the scenes we was thinking of doing for the depressive character was sitting them in a dark room (hoping to use an abandoned house) where they are sitting in the corner showing how their on drugs/have been taking drugs (needles and pills on the floor, smoking and shown use of drugs)

It would then cut to the other character being at work, getting on with their day, going out with friends etc.

Another shot we want to do is a close up of the depressed characters eyes looking all dark and ugly and then a really quick cut to the other characters eyes looking all colourful and pretty, we are also hoping to use a fish eye lense for the depressed characters life to show that they are 'living in a bubble/their own world'
