Genre Characteristics:
- Drum and Bass is famous for being palyed and parties and Raves.
- We will need a shot of people dancing/ravin at a gig possibly, in order to have the lighting etc associated with Drum and Bass.
- elements of the Underground scene
- fast paced frame cuts/flashing lights, chatoic scenes adapted to the change in the beat.
- fuzzy narrative for slower parts of the song. girls voice. put face to the vioce?
Relationship between lyrics and visuals:
- Very few lyrics throughout song, all female voice.
- narrative of life? happy times with family, boy/girlfriend, friends? progressesd to break up, chasing in car fast pace/high speed. harder times.
- Amplifying video
Relation ship between music and video:
- fighting? anger within narrative.
- fast paced bassy music.
- fast car (BMW???) - fast road (A21/M25?) travelling along moves across lanes into fast lane, speeds off
- Group of people (late teens/early 20's.
- dancing/raving to beat, more chaos as music gets faster.
- girl on sofa, drugs? smoking?
- depressive part for slower music beat.
Demands of the record label:
- very little need for closeups because theres isnt a huge influence from the artist.
- maybe for the driver of the car or on the girl used to represent the voice.
- close up of DJ maybe? with mixing decks?
Intertextual reference:
Girl in song not need to be represented as sexy/desirable.
- non provocative dressor dance moves.
- we could use the video for 'When Your Gone' by Basshunter.
- has nerrative of relationship problems/ people raving and dancing

Some good thoughts here, closeups are the 'meat' of music vids and inclusion of them brings the subject and text alive, also a diverse variety of angles and distances is essential for interesting viewing, the objective might not be to commodify an artist but they have a variety of other purposes. Do you mean 'narrative fuzz"?
