Shooting and Editing Ideas:

Verse 1:

The video  starts off with a mid shot of the girl sitting by the pool looking through her iPod, it then slowly zooms in on the ipod to show that she is looking for a song and also show what she has selected. This would be a point of view shot. It then moves to a wide shot of the girl lying by the pool, which is where she then starts singing the first verse. It then moves to a mid shot during the same verse. When the music starts to kick in, there will be a close up of her foot tapping to show rhythm, but also slowly zooming in to get even closer. After the second sentence, in the verse, she could move to a different position in the water, and we could use a wide shot for example. When she's singing the last word, of the last sentence, of the verse, which is 'alive' it could slowly zoom into a close up of her holding the note. We also want to get footage of the artist swimming underwater using a wide shot, also full body shots of her getting out of the water and diving into the pool.

Verse 2:

The chorus will be wide shots of memories. Clips taken from a various of events and places to fulfil the concept of memories. However on the second chorus it will be focusing on a club scene, where it will include flashing lights and the use of an earthquake effect. We might go back to her singing throughout the chorus, which will probably be a close up shot.

Chorus':

This verse will hopefully start off with a full body shot of the artist, where she will be standing on a walkway in the sunshine. Surrounding her will be trees and villas.  She will then walk towards the camera singing the lyrics of the song. Most of this verse will be shot with a full body shot, however it will zoom into a mid shot at some points of the song.
