Chosen Song

Our chosen song is "Closer To You" by indie Irish band The Coronas. I had previously not heard of the band, but Conall (the other member of the group) introduced me to them after having returned from a summer camp in Ireland. The song already has its own music video, which we realized after choosing the song and coming up with a vague concept/narrative, but we both thought the video was rather uninspired, although in its own way visually appealing. Our video will be completely different, and hopefully more interesting, than the one they have released. The song is quite long, meaning we will have a lot of time to fill, but we hope that won't be a problem. If it is, we will simply stop when the instrumental part begins at around 2:47.

Hidden
























I found this postcard among by books and thought that this would make for a fantastic music video. An unknown woman in a wooded area, dressed in a formal white dress- creating a sense of ominousness and mystery. I think songs that would be compatible are "Closer To You" and "Blind Will Lead The Blind" by the Coronas, suggested by my group partner.
This could be filmed in the park next to the school, and the white dress could be bought from a charity shop.
