SPEAK TO ME - Shot List

I have compiled a shot list together for the first part of the video, which will be SPEAK TO ME. It will be immediately followed by BRAIN DAMAGE. I thought BRAIN DAMAGE was too immediate, and so I thought it would be good to have a build up to this song. This allows the audience to recognise at once what kind of song this is. The shot list is pictured below.


I have tried to keep true to the structure of the song. Since most of the sounds in this particular song conjure up specific images, I thought it wise to follow this in the visuals. The use of a Therapist's Office is to make it clear to the audience that the protagonist, the LUNATIC, is mentally unstable. I also want to enter into the LUNATIC's mind in the video, so the rapid intercutting would be useful here. 

The use of a triangular frame at the beginning is an allusion to the cover of the DARK SIDE OF THE MOON album. I've used it here to give a sense of seclusion, claustrophobia and loneliness for the protagonist.
