Beyoncé - Pretty Hurts
Another idea that I had, was to perform a narrative music video with elements of performance in it, to the song 'Pretty Hurts' by Beyoncé. The concept of the video is a girl who struggles with self-esteem and has no confidence with her appearance. In the first two minutes of the video, the shots are slow which matches the slow pace of the song, and a variety of cross cuts will take place to show the girl constantly obsessing over her appearance and weight etc, whilst compring other girls in society. However, for the second half of the video, when the tempo increases; the narrative of the video goes on to portray the extremity of how much the girl is depressed and will connote how she is feeling on the inside. A range of editing will take place, including slow motion of her smashing a mirror and crying, foregrounding how she feels on the inside.
