Preparation

Before we go ahead with the filming there is alot of preparation that we are going to have to do. For my part in the music video, being the lead singer i will have to learn the lyrics of the song in order to film me and lip sink well.
I have put the song on my ipod and phone so that it is accessible to listen to at most times.
The lyrics i have to learn are these:

My other half wants to run away with me
It's too hot and too fast
If you tell him once just let it be
We don't want love, no love

And if it's real like the ghost on the sea
Shut up and smile cos you just cut into me
And if it's real like the ghost on the sea
Shut up and smile cos you just cut into me
And is it real, and is it real
And is it real like the ghost on the sea?

If our emotions get to heavy to carry
All too hot and too fast
They won't know and we won't be sorry
We don't want love, no love

And is it real like the girls on TV?
Shut up and smile cos you just cut into me
And is it real like those girls on TV?
Shut up and smile cos you just cut into me
And is it real, and is it real
Is it real like those girls on TV?

Tick tick, do that trick trick
Tick tick, now you're sick
Hide in the closet, we kiss
Neither of us feeling this

And is it real like the girls on TV?
Shut up and smile cos you just cut into me
And is it real like those girls on TV?
Shut up and smile cos you just cut into me
And this ain't real, and this ain't real
This ain't real like those girls on TV

As well as learning the lyrics i have got to make a costume and find some make up that will fit with the genre of our song. This is indie, edgy and colourful to contrast will the plain colours of the mime costume. Also we must remember to bring duck tape to mark the places that me and tom (the mime) will stand so that editing the different shots of tom will be easier and more fluent.
