Ben Harper music video proposal

For the video we are including three main key ideas. These would be various performance pieces on an acoustic guitar and bongo drums, a more comical aspect where two people are dressed up as well as a few abstract clips.

acoustic guitar man on -
train platform
train
in town
park
someones house
toilet
pool
car park

fancy dress love -
2 people dressed up as monkeys, vegetables, clowns (change facial expressions throughout) pirates, ninjas. to fill up boring parts of song - quite comical, one proposes at end :)

abstract -
funny drawings, speed up
lyrics to song

landmarks -
in london, famous landmarks and bridges etc. toy stores, changing rooms, playing on a bridge or pavement as sun goes down, till it gets dark.



From this Ben Folds video we would like to use the shot of the man jumping into the swimming pool reversed. We also like some of the shot techniques like the extreme close ups of the guy mouthing the lyrics. We'd like to use the same kind of editing techniques such as speeding up and slowing down parts of the sequence. Although the video is very good, it has a very comical value, we would like this same comical aspect in our own video.





Again in this video we like the comical aspect. This video however differs from the Ben Folds video because it uses people dressing up to put across the comical aspect.
