Music Video Treatment

After discussing and collecting all of our ideas, we all seemed to be most keen on the 1920's Theme.
We weren't to impressed with the song which we were close to choosing which was "Singing In The Rain" by Mint Royale. While browsing for other 1920 songs we came across "Why Don't You Do Right" by Peggy Lee, which was a 2010 remix which fitted perfectly with our idea of the 1920's.

The beginning of "Why Don't You Do Right" is slow and in the 1920's style and then the tempo is increased and there is an obvious change from old fashioned to modern. At the beginning during the old fashioned section, we thought of having two black men shining white mens shoes (typical 1920's), and then when the modern section is introduced they will both mix to show the racial contrast between the 1920's and the current day.

We were thinking of shooting the Music Video in Black and White and then have a few shoots of the lead vocalists in B&W with red lipstick.

We also want to include a Narrative element into the video, but we are still discussing on were to take it.
