More Ideas

As we don't want to include a narrative in our video and want to keep it abstract, we need something to keep the viewers attention. It is well-known amongst fans of The Smiths that the lyrics and the song arrangements in The Smith's music often conveys a lot of irony, for example songs like 'Rusholme Ruffians'. The song is melodically upbeat and joyous but lyrically deals with the subject of suicide. I thought it may be interesting to incorporate some kind of irony and juxtaposition into our music video to give our viewers something to notice and think about.
