Mind Map & Initial Ideas

 

Initial Ideas:

- Heart break
- City Life

- student life

- Day to day activity

For this music video, we will be taking inspiration from an artist named Keshi. We will also incorporate some detailed background shots, but the focus will be on the background shots. This clip is about the life of a student with a lot of work to do. One of the ideas for the color palette was a softer style, adding more blues and some warm colors to create a calming atmosphere. To capture city life, we decided to include intimate scenes of the members, houses, alleys, schools, public squares, parks, etc. We also wanted to film the city with drones. It would be a nostalgic piece for viewers in their thirties who experienced urban life during their college years. As for the performances, we also wanted to include scenes of the characters singing and playing guitar, but we may add more performance scenes in the future. Another idea was to do it in Joji's style. He's an R'n'B artist and he also plays acoustic guitar, which would fit perfectly with our songs. His style is quite different from our first concept, with a softer color palette and more emphasis on the urban and familiar landscape. This second concept uses more colors such as red, gray, black, white, blue and green to focus more on the main character's facial expressions and show the confused nature of the character. Additionally, an unconventional editing style is used, with many paced cuts in a short period of time, which also gives the character a more confusing feel. For viewers in their thirties or those who have recently graduated, this music video taps into the universal experience of student life and early adulthood. By showing familiar urban spaces, quiet study moments, and friendship dynamics, the video can evoke personal memories of college life, young love, and the excitement and uncertainty of youth. Despite the challenges shown, the beauty and tranquility of some scenes can create a safe, almost idyllic space where viewers momentarily escape into simpler days or a world where emotions are expressed freely through music. The character’s journey through confusion, heartbreak, and discovery creates a deeply emotional connection for viewers. The narrative of young adulthood—filled with complex feelings of ambition, friendship, and self-doubt—mirrors the emotional highs and lows of growing up. The city scenes and drone shots act as “peeks” into the hidden layers of a student’s day-to-day experience. It’s as though the audience is given an insider’s view, creating a sense of witnessing the characters’ personal moments. 

Overview:

 When Mr.Vz said that we would make a music video, I thought to my first friend that he is an artist who makes songs. He's just my normal friend from last year grade 11 when we were studying business together I was quite close to him He is a rather foolish, quick-tempered and angry person, but we still played games with each other like after having the final exam, he was quite funny even though his joke not. In grade 11 I didn't care about his talent, but he was nice at playing guitar, at that time I hadn't noticed that yet, I rarely heard him playing guitar in classes with other girls. Moreover, until summer when I almost fell asleep I just accidentally scrolled into his stream on Instagram. At first, I didn't care about it and almost skipped it, but I was too bored with other things so I just clicked in to see what happened, and then what I saw. A talented artist, that stream only has 2 people to watch and he streaming at 2 am. Meanwhile, I asked him a lot of questions and he explained that this song was made by him ( the song is really good tho). After that, I supported him by following and liking the stream and told him to keep up continue with his dream then fall asleep. When Mr.VZ told me to do this music video task I only remembered my friend his name is Bình (Peter), he was also welcome to help my team. Our team have me ( Kevin), Mark, Nathan and Peter. And we planning that Peter and Kevin should be the main characters for this music video

Music without the lyrics with low and high speed

 

This is with half of the lyrics ( Peter haven't finish all the lyrics, he's planning to finish its up on december) so we might just take this as an DEMO version

There will be some transition part in this video music so its better when we apply it into our real MV

The last part we planning to record the transition a main character with stand in the middle of the rain right next to the HCM city with this sad part and with sad emotional

( sorry there was some other disturbed sound that come from my family while recording this so please don't care about that)
