Treatment

Music video Treatment:

Title: ‘Honestly, I’m a Fake’ by Goodnight Vienna

Genre: Alternative rock.

Narrative: Video starts as a group of friends, who will be the band members and their close friends, hanging out and having a laugh at the park in the evening. The main characters are made clear through the use of close ups and tracking of the characters. Lead girl catches sight of lead boy walking away from group and runs after and pulls boy back. There is then shouting and the girl gestures towards the other girl asking who she is? In the climax of the argument either the male or female lead will mime the title of the song, which is ‘Honestly, I’m a Fake’. The boy goes back to the other girl and the lead female actress stays where she is. When she finally turns around and start to re-join group there will be flashbacks to the relationship in the past and the good moments. Performance shots will be used after the flashbacks for the rest of the video with some crosscutting to close-ups of the lead actress expression and how the rest of the friends are still having a good time.
