Possible story ideas


We are currently undecided on what song we want to do a video for between Of Corpse My Dear and Ambulance both by The Empires. The song Ambulance is more indie rock while Of Corpse My Dear is more Punk rock.

For Ambulance, the video story would be about a girl who has 2 sides to her, an innocent side and a wild side. The Story would show the girl with either her boyfriend or her dad, then at a party after with drink and drugs. Point of view shots would be used to give a drunken drugged up feel.

For Of Corpse My Dear the story would be about a guy who has recently lost his girlfriend. He would be shown at her funeral or her grave and taking drugs on the way out of the graveyard. The story would then be him back in his house, hallucinating and imagining her in each of the rooms he walks in. Point of view shots would be used to give the effect of what he is thinking and what exactly he is seeing. He would pass out, fall or be sick at the end of the video.

As you can see both possible music videos will include the use of drugs which it typical of videos in this genre, and point of view shots will be used to show the effects of the drugs on the person who is taking them.
