Research and Planning: Narrative

The Narrative i'm going to look is will be based on a song. I'm going for a style of short film which is based around a song/album. I am going to do a Song as i only have 5 minutes to film it. Here are some ideas for songs to base my short film on. 
chose these to identify music tracks by bands who don't have established success. This will be harder to do as there isn't many videos from these bands out there. This means it will be harder to get inspiration.

we're going to be friends - white stripes


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKfD8d3XJok


This song already has a video. The video is just the singer sitting on a sofa in the front garden of a house playing the guitar and singing while a women is asleep next to him. This song is about starting the singer starting school and meeting a girl called Suzy Lee. As you can tell by the song name it's about the singer wanting to be friends with Suzy.

explain bullet point the narrative of the song then add strengths weakness and reasons for choosing plus the video if there is an existing video use that. If not use another video from the band, if not state this and add something similar
