Set Design; Props, Location Etc.


The singer in our video will be performing in and walking around environments that make him look as much like an organic star as possible, there will be no white backgrounds or (visible) studios. It will be shot in a small, cheap bar, a dark bedroom and a few shots will be outside in a gloomy looking forest. Locations like these show him to be an organic artist rather than a synthetic one, as a synthetic artist would have an incredibly extravagant, expensive (and tasteless) music video, probably involving lots of dancers, set pieces and props but not a lot of clothing. It would also be shot entirely in a studio, or a fancy nightclub somewhere. That is not the impression that we are going to give of our artist. It will be as if the camera is following him around a fairly average, if not slightly miserable day, although there will be performances cut in as well as all of the skull motifs (gotta keep things interesting). In terms of props, it will mostly be things like cigarettes and booze, as well as his trusty guitar.
The kind of depressing bar he will be singing and drinking in.
 
Choice of drink.
 
Chainsmoker, naturally.
