Owl City - Take It All Away

As a group we have decided to choose the song by Owl City- Take it all away 

The genre of music we have chosen to do is Generic pop. The synopsis of the song is about a break up which leaves a significant loss in the male’s life. in a  part of the lyrics he say ’as I tried to digest the words I couldn't believe’ which shows that he can’t move on and is trying to deal with the situation of the break up.

Narrative of the Music Video: Owl City- Take it all away

The concept of our music video is about a break up. We first start the music video with a shot of the sky with the trees. This is used to set the mood as the setting will be gloomy. As the singing starts, the first scene we decided to show is the couple in a park talking, at this moment the female tells the male that they are breaking up. After there is an argument, we show a long shot of the female walking away leaving the male on the park bench on his own. As we slowly fade into the next scene we show the male walking around London (this is where the main male lip-synchs) and hallucinating about the happy memories that the couple had together. To show the couples past, we decided to make the scenes grey and gloomy to show that they were good memories. As the lyrics go ‘take it all away’ we decide to use a rewind effect where the male tries to pretend that the relationship does not exist. The effects that we decided to use are time lapse, and rewinding parts of the clips to create the effect of the male’s imagination, as he is still distraught about the break up.
