Lyrics Timecode

This is the timecode for the lyrics of our song; I went through the song and wrote down the time every line starts. We then went through the time code as a group wrote out shots for each individual line - giving us a much clearer initial idea for the video. By visually seeing how much time we had for each shot, and by looking at the phrasing of words on particular lines, we were able to slot in both shot ideas we already had, and also new ideas based on lyrics in the line.

The lyrics with time coding also allowed us to decide where we would use the narrative structure of her walking backwards, and where we would show her lip syncing the song. We've decided that we want the lip syncing sections to be filmed on a bench with an iconic view of London as the backdrop. Ideas for the reverse theme have really begun to take shape and the group has also agreed on a new idea of the singer changing clothes throughout, with four striking clothing styles being agreed on.
