Initial song ideas for a video – Mini pitch

After looking at lots of different music videos and gaining inspiration, I have began a vision of my own for what I think could work quite well. I have decided on the song “Lovely” by Billie Eilish and Khalid. It is 3 minutes and 20 seconds so a reasonable length of time.

LOVELY

Thought I found a way
Thought I found a way out (out)
But you never go away (never go away)
So I guess I gotta stay now
Oh, I hope someday I’ll make it out of here
Even if it takes all night or a hundred years
Need a place to hide, but I can’t find one near
Wanna feel alive, outside I can’t fight my fear
Isn’t it lovely, all alone?
Heart made of glass, my mind of stone
Tear me to pieces, skin to bone
Hello, welcome home
Walking out of time
Looking for a better place (looking for a better place)
Something’s on my mind
Always in my head space
But I hope someday I’ll make it out of here
Even if it takes all night or a hundred years
Need a place to hide, but I can’t find one near
Wanna feel alive, outside I can’t fight my fear
Isn’t it lovely, all alone?
Heart made of glass, my mind of stone
Tear me to pieces, skin to bone
Hello, welcome home
Woah, yeah
Yeah, ah
Woah, woah
Hello, welcome home

Whilst listening to the song, I wrote down words which I associated with the lyrics, ambiance and feelings created. I then created a word cloud with these words which is shown below.

For the narrative, I was thinking about possibly basing it off of a girl who feels isolated and is being controlled by her thoughts and feelings and her wanting to escape somewhere that is more open and free. I could switch between two locations. One being dark and derelict and the other being more green and open.

The performance side of the music video will be the star lip syncing but it will be included within the narrative.
