Final Song Choice;

After a discussion we made a final decision of song and this is Love The Way You Lie by Eminem featuring Rihanna.
Our main reason for choosing this song was because there isn't yet a music video which has been created for this song, this gives us chance to interpret the lyrics of the song in our own way rather than relying on a video which has already been made. Also, after studying the lyrics we realised that the song had a narrative and meant that we would be able to use the lyrics to perform a story in our music video. We already have a number of actors and actresses in mind which we can ask to perform within our video, along with a number of different locations that we can use to film in and around. 
The main issues that this song deals with is violence and abuse which is what we will be focusing on throughout our video. To get this point across we will be using a range of different shots and locations of couples arguing and being abusive towards each other. Most of the filming we are planning will be in the evenings so that it is dark and sets a more damped atmosphere and will fit the song well. We are planning to use lots of different couples to show that everyone argues at some point in their relationships. At certain points in the song the lyrics change to when the couples were happy and when everything was fine in their relationship, when this happens we are going to use the same couples but we shoot during the day to make it a 'calmer' setting.
