Props in our Music Video

Props that will be featured in our music video:

Chains and Hand cuffs- The normal version of our artist is being restrained and restricted by his alter ego therefore hand cuffs and chains would show this. Hand cuffs and Chains would also show that he is a prisoner trapped in his alter egos world. We would use the chains to dangle our artist in the air so he looks like he is being controlled like a puppet.

Jester’s hat- A jester is a professional Joker or a fool and it is normally told what activities it should do next for someone else’s enjoyment. This would work extremely well in our music video as our artists song is a conversation between his normal self and his alter ego. The alter ego is controlling and influencing his normal self therefore a Jester’s hat would make that clear for the audience.

Puppet strings- We would use Puppet strings in our music video to make our artist look like he is being controlled by someone. The strings would be attached to both arms and our artist would move in a robotic fashion.

Crucifix- The original artist makes references to Jesus in his lyrics therefore a crucifix would be appropriate for the music video.

Clock- Throughout the music video the alter ego is making his normal self even worse and he is struggling to fight it therefore having a cutaway to a clock during the music video would show that time is running out for him to overcome his alter ego.

Dreadlocks wig- The original artist makes references to “Anwar’s dreadlocks” in his lyrics therefore using this as a prop would be appropriate for the music video.

Hammer and Knife- The alter ego person in the music video has to look evil and threatening therefore a Knife and a Hammer in his possession or in the background of a location would do that for him.

Alcohol bottles and used Cigarettes- In our video we need to show to the audience the alter ego person is a very mental, disturbed and eerie. Cigarettes and alcohol have very bad reputations and they can both lead to serious illness therefore these props would be suitable for what we are trying to achieve.
