Narrative Synopsis

We have chose to use a narrative structure for our pop promo. The concept will be based around movement of time and crossing paths. It will feature Girl A and Girl B, who will cross paths throughout the day and perform activities in parallel to each other. A night time a sequence will then show them meeting at a bar and sparking up a relationship.

The following synopsis is the chronological order of events.
  • Both girls walking to college but on different routes
  • Both girls will cross the same road/traffic lights on there journey
  • Both girls walking back home
  • Both girls getting ready, putting on make up etc ready for a night out.
  • Both girl on there way to the city centre. Girl A walking and Girl B driving.
  • Girl A sat down drinking in a bar
  • Girl B approaches Girl A and ask if she can sit with her.
  • The girls get chatting and have a laugh and a flirt.
  • Girl B has to leave but asks Girl A for her number
  • The girls kiss and Girl B leaves
  • Both girls shown lying in bed at home hoping for a text from the other girl.
  • A smiling Girl B eventually receives a text form Girl B
  • Both girls go to sleep happy.

However, we are going to rearrange the chronological order of events to make the narrative more interesting. The stage shown in BLUE will actually be the beginning of the music video, to create tension between what is happening between these two girls. The end of the music video will therefore anaphorically reference the beginning and create a 'full circle' as such.
