Research and Planning for Music Video



The song we have chosen to do is 'Bom Bom' by Sam and the Womp, the song was released in the United Kindom on 19th August 2012, and the first week of septemeber of that year, the song hit number-one on the UK's single charts with 107,461 copies sold in its first week. Sam nd the Womp are a British pop group that fromed in september 2009, consisting of trumpeter Sam Richie, and Dutch-born singer Bloem de Wilde de Ligny but is better known as 'Bloom'.



Here is a lyric analysis of the song.






Music Video Synopsis

Song title: "Bom Bom"
Artist: Sam and the Womp

First Verse:

The music video will start with introducing the different characters that we will have in the film, we will have several characters ranging from younger people to older all of different styles. The whole theme of our music video will be following the unconventional style that the lyrics portray not really making sense or going with a normal narrative, going down the absurd/surrealist route. " I'm the cat with the bass and drum" This is the first line of the song and this is where we introduce the main character, this person will continue to return in the song, rather than be shown once.

Chorus:

The whole theme of our music video will be following the unconventional style that the lyrics portray not really making sense or going with a normal narrative, going down the absurd/surrealist route. 
It will take place in rooms with white walls and backgrounds, an idea we have is using a white sheet, and covering it in different patterns, and weird props and to have people dancing in front of them. during the video the camera will stay stationary, but the camera itself will change, for example using a Go Pro for a 'fish eye' effect, and using different lenses to change the focal points. " I'm so cool and I'm so groovy when I go bom, bom, bom". This is the main chorus lyric, its short and snappy this chorus does not fit the conventional chorus, most songs have at least five lines. 


Second Verse:


The second verse will be very similar to the first, but we will be changing locations and backgrounds, for example the first verse is against a white background, and a white sheet covered in props. For the second verse, we will be using garages and open fields. 


Chorus:

The chorus will be the same as the first, using the fish eye lens to create a weird mood and using different lenses to change the focal points, for this chorus the props will be used more to create random dance moves. The chorus is repeated again at the end so the last chorus, will be slightly different only focusing on the main characters and cutting from different locations and backgrounds.
