Disconnected - Brief

Okay, for the imaginary music video for the song Disconnected, I plan on using three main pieces of footage and reverting back and forth between them. The first piece of footage that will be interspersed throughout the video is various close ups and extreme close ups of the leading lady in the video looking at photographs, looking sad and generally being lonely because she misses her husband.

I also intend on having close up footage and mid-shots of her husband fighting in war, the close ups will be used to show his emotion as he fights and reminisces about his wife and the mid shots will show him fighting. There will be some extreme close ups of him as he loses he leg, showing the injury and his facial expressions as he struggles with his pain.

The third piece of main footage will be the war itself, there will plenty of long shots to show the scale of the war and all the battles going on it. (Lots of sfx here, explosions, gun shots, fake blood, this will show the brutality of war).

So yeah, the first two thirds of the song will be filled with footage full of emotion, however, the last third will have a different tone and will have lots of close-ups as the two protagonists reconcile and show their relief that they're back together. I will also have a long shot, and in that long shot, the women is outside her house waiting and sees her husband coming, when they make eye contact they start running towards each other in dramatic slow motion (or in the man's case, he will wheel himself towards her, because he will be in a wheelchair).
