Chris Brown- Lottery

This is the final music my group and I have chosen to do as our coursework video. The artist is Chris Brown and the title of the song is 'Lottery'. The reason why we have chosen Chris Brown is because he is a very popular artist. His music are mainly RnB which goes with our genre choice. The song is about a boy trying to get a girls number. But before he can get it, he trys to guess it and describes what it would mean to him. The music was released on 2007 and does not have an official music video.

Possible Ideas:
1) As this song does not have an Official Music Video, it becomes more challenging as we do not have the video to take ideas from. It will be nice to compare our video to the original music video and see if we can spot any similarities. The video will feature both male and female actors, with the male playing the dominant role. The video will start of by the male looking at this girl which he likes the number from, falls into a gaze and goes to a fantasy world. This is where the music will come. The male actor will follow the girl in various different locations and days where he will be guessing the numbers which the girl will resist to give. At the end of the video, the male comes out of the gaze and goes back to the real life.

2) Our second idea would be shoot up the whole song in a tube station, as the girl is leaving the station, and the boy is trying to get her number. Even though she is not paying attention as if she doesnt want to give it, he starts following her. Theres a hint in the girls face (using close up shots) that she is also interested but show it easily. He keeps on following her as she tries to go home. she waits at the bus stop, and he keeps on singing the lyrics. She gets on the bus, and the boy is rejected as he lost his oyster card. Then the boy goes to the nearest shop and tops £10 credit on his phone. The next scene is at his house, where he is thinking about the girl and ringing random numbers.....

Possible Props:
-Mobile Phones for both Actors
-Casual Clothes

-Lottery Papers

Shooting Dates:
We will start shooting the video on the 16th of November. We will carry on and see what days the cast and crew are available which will be our next shooting days.
