Group: The Male Actors

Masks
-We have decided we want to have all the masks be different in order to provide a conventional feel relating to nature.
-Not all animals are the same and we wanted to communicate CLEARLY that not all males treat girls the same. Only a certain few.

Madonna-Material Girl (1984)

-Using the example of Madonna - Material Girl, we want to replicate the fact that all the men's movement is based around what the female does,  always reacting just after she does. This symbolises her dominance and prevalence within the video.

Representation
-We want to dominate and empower women in our video as our concept revolves around the main female actor going off the rails and hating men for using her for one thing.
-Therefore, with this concept in mind we want to present men in an animalistic way, as this will convey the inner thoughts of the actor.
-Furthermore, with references relating to nature and animals, we want to represent the idea of the female actor turning to nature as a sense of release from the pain she feels from the one night stand. She is almost drowning her sorrows as she is forced to think about her actions throughout the video.

Shot ideas
-Final Shot

We want the final shot to look similar to this picture featured within Foxes-White Coats. This will summarise the female actors emotions towards the situation of the one night stand whilst also presenting it clearly to the audience, as it is only implied at the beginning of the video that she has been out all night.






Costume
We decided against our original idea of dressing the animals in suits to give a sense of non identity as we think it will portray males in too much of a sinister way and that they will look to mature for our female protagonist. We also feel our second idea of black hoodies would also look to sinister and give them a "thug" representation. To resolve this we decided on black t-shirts, to keep are theme of non-identity, but to get rid of any sinister connotations, replacing it with a more casual tone.
