For our music video, we have decided that we want to create something different and unique. A genre I have never seen done by past students is the Christmas song genre, and this is something we think could be really fun to explore.
The idea we have had follows a young child (around 6 years old) very early on Christmas morning as they creep downstairs and begin to wreak havoc in the house by opening presents, pulling all the crackers, making fake snow, etc. Towards the end of the song we would have either the rest of the family or just one family member (most likely the 'older sister' of the child) come down to find the house covered in wrapping and cracker gifts with the child sat in the middle having fun. It would be a very fun, light-hearted video to an upbeat Christmas song.
There would be a strong focus on the mise-en-scene and costume with the house being highly decorated and there being seasonal features like the tree, cards on the shelves, and stockings over the fire. We'd also have everyone dressed in Christmas pyjamas. For this video, there are a couple of people we have in mind for filming. As the child would need to be fully comfortable around us, we thought we could use my cousin (6) and myself as the older sister as then she would be totally comfortable being filmed. Failing this, my friend and her 4 year old brother would also be up for taking part and, again, would be comfortable around each other.
