Music Video Idea #1- Rizzle Kicks 'Keep it up'

  • My first idea for a music video is the song 'Keep it up' by Rizzle Kicks. They are a hip-hop duo from Brighton and best known for dance and hip-hop classics such as 'Mama do the Hump'. The music video I have in mind would follow the narrative of the song which would mainly be a performance. The beginning would start with the performers matching what they are singing in the song as the song itself quickly narrates catchphrases such as 'I'm better than a dinosaur, with a shiny sword' where the performers would be lip syncing this whilst also pointing at each of the objects they are referring to. The objects would either be props or animation depending what is easier to do/looks the best. Costumes would be casual clothing such as t shirts and skinny jeans. The narrative would follow the whole way through the song however at some points acting/actors may be used to narrate a different part of the song that isn't being performed. 
    Costumes such as this including sunglasses

    For stylistic elements I would like to use animation to show the different objects at the beginning as this would make the video stand out and also it would be easier to get exactly what I have in mind after a day of shooting. The video would fit in with the track by narrating the story as it goes but also be quite comedic with the performers being cheeky chappies which fits in with the brand image of the artist. 


    During pointing at the animations the artist would be singing to the camera and gradually walking forward. On the shoot day the performers will not see anything there when pointing as that will all be put in during post production.
