Clothing and 1940's fashion

The clothes have been chosen for the video, they are very much in the 1940's style - Long dresses, and non-revealing.

In Muse's video for 'Neutron star Collision', the clothes worn were very up to date with today's fashion - as it was set in the 2000's. This is why we want to make our 1940's video as realistic as possible, clothes and all. It is interesting the way that Muse's video is so different in styling than what ours will be, even though they are both focused around love and war. This just goes to show how much life has changed, but how some aspects never will.

Initial planning

Our music video will be edited in black and white, to give an older effect to the film, as we are setting it in the early 1940's.
The story line will be about a young couple during WW2, enjoying their married life until the time comes for the husband to go to war. The wife is given the tragic news that her husband has been killed, and has to rely on her sister-in-law to hold her and her family together.

We will be using clothes similar to that of the 40's era, with long dresses and curled hair for the women, and tailored suits and hats for the men, and ofcorse the army uniform the husband is sent off to war in.

Luckily, the houses of myself and another person in my group are perfect to use in our video. The scenes for the short wedding scene and the front of the house have been picked.

Warner Bros.

Following on the definite choice of our song - 'Neutron Star Collision' by Muse. An email has been sent to their record company - Warner Bros, stating that if nothing has been heard back from them in two weeks time saying that they would prefer for us not to use their song, we shall proceed with using their song.

So now the planning for the video can continue.
