Music Video Project
Artist: The Heyday
Title: Fools Go Fallin’
Group: Elliott, Jeremy, Mackensie
The music video for Fools Go Fallin’ is going to feature multiple giant hearts that chase each band member through different places.
The song is about denying love and how only fools fall in love, so the video is going to relate to this idea by having the band members running away from a heart, a symbol for love.
Said heart is going to be a person in a very large heart costume that we are going to make.
There is going to be a lot of humor in the video, and most of it will be due to the heart that is running around Denver. There will also be humor from some fun action shots such as a slow motion escape down a children’s slide.
The individual stories of each band member being chased by a heart will be intercut with scenes of the whole band playing on a stage that we will set up.
The music video will begin with shots of the whole band playing together. Then as soon as the lyrics start it will cut to shots of Randy, the lead singer, running down a street. It will then cut to shots of the heart chasing him. It will be important to introduce the heart gradually at the beginning in order to build up suspense and intrigue as to who Randy is running from.
The majority of the song will cut back and forth between shots of the whole band playing and shots of each band member running from a heart.
One band member will be running through a residential area such as a neighborhood and will cut through a house and jump over the back fence into an alley.
One band member will be running through a park, weaving between trees and making his way through a kid’s play area.
One band member will be running through a parking garage and will then get in a car and start driving. The heart will also get in a car and there will be a mini car chase within the parking garage.
At 2 minutes and 5 seconds into the song where he sings “So maybe it’s time we just throw in the towel,” there will be slow motion shots of the heart tackling three of the band members, Sean, Pete and Brian. This will work well here as it is the climax of the song.
Then there will be more shots of the band playing and shots of Randy still running from the heart.
The end of the video will have Randy standing triumphantly in the foreground with the heart behind him unable to get to him.
