I thought I'd try and copy what 30 Seconds To Mars do with their music videos. They fashion them as short films - cutting the song to fit in with the film. They do this successfully with these three videos:
Jared Leto, under the pseudonym Bartholomew Cubbins, has directed all of these videos. It seems appropriate because of his film acting career. I don't think I will split the video into the typical narrative stages like in the videos above. I would prefer to use a mostly non-linear narrative to display the Lunatic's current mindset. I would also want to copy a lot of 30 Seconds To Mars's style. I think the band's dark identity (black hair, black nail varnish, black clothing, dark subject matter) would suit the overall look that I want to achieve.
I'm working on a few surreal ideas for the video. I've decided to establish what locations I am going to use and what is involved in them. I will post a blog of these soon.
