My ideal genre would be indie-pop/rock, as there is often a lot to work with lyrically and the indie genre would be the easiest to recreate with zero budget. It would also give us scope for both narrative and energetic performance, as in 'Ribena' by Pegasus Bridge (see influential videos).
Genres I would prefer not to work on would be rap, heavy metal and dance, as it would be more difficult for me to brainstorm around these genres as I know less about them.
Suitable Singles for the track:
I decided that 'While we're young' would be a good song to do a music video for because of the indie-pop/rock genre, and also the song lyrics. Also, the song progressively builds throughout, and has the potential for both narrative and performance sequences.
The song lyrics talk about worrying about regretting life decisions, and is relatable to both young and older audiences, so it'd be good for targeting a wide audience.
Camisado - Panic! At The Disco
I think this would be a good single to choose as well, for similar reasons to the Pegasus Bridge song above. This song is quite heavy at points, which could make a very interesting performance bed, and we could also do something quite creative with the camera movement for narrative, with very chaotic movement in frame as well. The only trouble with this is that from the song lyrics I have drawn out that it is about a dying patient (perhaps cancer) so linking the narrative directly could be slightly difficult, so we may have to create our own concept for it.
