Treatment

B1-11 Group 1: James Tighe, Simon Robinson, and Sarah Legg

Music Video: For our music video we have decided to do a remix version of two songs of the same name and principles.

Eminem - Love the way you lie (ft. Rihanna)

Rihanna - Love the way you lie (Part 2) (ft. Eminem)

Both songs display strong emotions and are very impactful, we feel that remixing both songs will create a dramatic more impactful music video; it also gives us the chance to play with the foundations of the concept, and allow us to be very creative.

Duration: the music video will approximately be 4 minutes and 30 seconds. \

Audience: the target audience will consist of two main audiences mostly young people (both male and female) aged 15 - 30 as the songs mainly reflect them, but it also targets people who are involved in any form of violence or abuse, issuing that awareness must be made, but also that people who are involved should speak up against it.

Resume (Plot): the songs are about being involved in domestic violence and love-hate relationships. Each of the songs tells a story from a different prospective (the male and the female). Our music video will display both perspectives. Our video begins with a couple sat on a couch, by the expressions on their faces they are in a rocky relationship, trying to amend this problem, the guy (played by James Tighe) leans into the girl (played by Sarah Legg) to kiss her, she rejects him. James get up and storms of with a remote in hand, things then turn violent, and through the remainder of the song the relationship spirals out of control, it displays true issues of a love-hate relationship.

Suggested Elements:

· Performance: The girl plays a key part in the video; she starts as this vulnerable, scared and frightened girl during the first part of the video. When the song kicks in, she becomes more confident and brave, the status and power between the characters are now balanced. The male is another key part, being the abuser, has the same same power relation throughout the music video, he's cocky, confident, arrogant, and very aggressive.

· Special Effects: May include pixilated footage or static (TV).
