After getting inspiration from multiple places, I have had some idea for my music video. The work with stuffed animals in the "Imagine Dragons - Radioactive" video has inspired me to use hand puppets in my video. With the use of a green glove/bodysuit and a greenscreen, I will be able to give the puppet life-like mannerisms and movements, as well as advance a small narrative idea I have.
Also taking slight inspiration from a clockwork orange, I will have a gang similar in aesthetic to the one displayed in the film. Throughout the video, they will terrorize families, and groups of friends of puppets/stuffed animals, with lots of artsy slow motion shots of them destroying property and walking around.
This idea opens a lot of doors for research and planning, as I can look intro puppetry, and how to give puppets personality and uniqueness without them speaking. For this I expect to use props, clothing and camera angles. I feel the abstract qualities of this idea will allow me to be creative with the filming process, while also keeping me on track with a set narrative.
The song I currently have in mind for the idea is Seven Nation Army by the White Stripes, but this could change.
