Developing our idea
My group of three each thought of two ideas. We then pitched them to each other and decided that one stood out above all others. This was for the song “Ta Douler”.
Our idea for treating this song was to use multiple layers on the screen. The first layer is a girl sat watching the performance as though in a cinema. The second layer is the actual band performing on stage and on screen. The third layer will be a possible narrative element interwoven.
The song itself is about a girl whose boyfriend has cheated on her, and how she is dealing with the pain. The girl in our cinema is getting over the pain by watching the group singing about pain.
We wanted our group to be sexy but serious, modern as shown on cinema screens but also very ordinary. This is part of Richard Dyer’s theory of stardom which says that to be a star you need to be different and untouchable to ordinary fans, and yet someone they can identify with. We were trying to do just this.
