The story part of my music video takes place in a run down urban area, following the life of one Jonny Edwards. Jonny is a low life, young homeless drug addict who has coasted through his life, messing up every decision he has made, constantly pushing people away and driving himself down into this pit of self destruction. The main cusp of my story is to explore the idea that Johnny's life is not entirely his fault and perhaps there is somesort of force, guiding us down the paths we take.This first part of script would act as a voiceover at the beginning of the video, over the top of establishing shots.
Meet Johnny, society has passed him down to the lowest of the low. Now some cynics may say that johnnys done this to himself, that every action has an equal and opposite reaction, others like johnny may argue that the world is an unfair place and that bad things happen to good people. But what if there was more to life than that, what if there was somebody watching…
The second stint of dialogue would take place in an abandoned warehouse or car park, that this 'soul reaper' has dragged jonny too, after stalking him throughout the video.
What are you doing? Wha.. where am i?
You’re at a turning point in your life jonny
Don’t give me that crap! Where am i??
You’re safe jonny, this can go two ways, you will either walk out of here a new man, a happy man, or you will carry on down the same path that he been laid down for you
What do you mean laid down for me? Who are you?
Well I can’t possibly tell you that, but the world has called us by many names, ancients, soul reapers, vampires or my personal favourite angels.
Angels? Am I dead?
Are you breathing?
Okay am I going to die?
The question you want jonny, is are you going to live? And only you can answer that.
