VIDEO INSPIRATIONS AND LINKS TO THEORY

As our video is going to be narrative and performance based, we searched existing music videos which has both elements of narrative and performance. The music video which inspired us was "Blonde- Loved You More". However, we were also inspired by the movie "Spring Breakers".  So therefore we've  decided to use some aspects from the video as well as the movies and model it in our own way.

Todorov's theory

Todorovs theory states that most plot lines tend to follow a pattern. There are 5 stages in this pattern;

1. Equilibrium -the part of the story will display a happy/ peaceful start. However in our video the start is going to be the end. Our video is going to start with all the 3 characters walking in a dark and the scene is going to quit sad just like the beginning scene in LOVED YOU MORE video.

2. Disruption- this states that the second part of the story will feature a problem or something will disrupt the happiness. however in our video the second part is going to be us having fun and partying.we are going to use a reverse shot to show the how the characters used to friends.thedisruption is going to be when 2 of the characters decide to rob a shop and try to involve the 3rd character( the good one)

3. Recognition-this part of the plot is when everyone recognises the problem.this is going to be when the one of the characters relises that the path she is going is not good for her.

4. Attempt To Repair Disruption- At this point the problem is obviouse and the characters try to solve the problem .in our video this part is going to be When one of the characters realises that what they are doing is wrong and is not what she wants so she arranges a meeting with her 2 friends to solve the problem.
