Having almost completed our storyboard, we have thought of a few techniques and ideas for certain shots that could connote the meaning of the song that we want to audience to see and feel. At one particular point, when the lyrics get to 'The days that just don't seem worthwhile' We have incorporated a close up of the protagonist's face. Having just shaved, one half will be clean, one will still be bearded/stubbly. This connoted the two way, almost split personality and lifestyle of the man. One side is clean and caring, the other is dark and careless.
Furthermore, we have developed our idea for the shot when he is at home and everyone is buzzing around him. Now we think it would connote the mans lifestyle if we were to edit to and from his workplace and back to his home, connoting that it is always on his mind and that he cannot relax.
In addition to this, we have planned our opening shots while the song is having the introduction with no lyrics. We will film a sunrise over a hill for a long period of time, and then using Final Cut Pro we will edit it so it plays extremely fast and shows the sun coming up. We will also use this technique with a shot of a street, showing people and cars going past very fast. This technique connotes the repetetiveness of everyday life, which is what we feel the entire song is about, even before the lyrics start. Foreshadowing to the audience what is to come.
