Examples of similar videos.

Here are some video with similar ideas to what we want ours to turn out like, and with the use of funerals/graveyards/flashback, etc.



This video shows Amy miming throughout & the plot is of her walking with a precession of other people many of them carrying instruments with a hearse. When they arrive at the graveyard the grave is small and they put a small box in it & say their goodbyes, at the end R.I.P The heart of Amy Winehouse comes up.
The whole video is in black & white making it seem cold and also re-inforcing the song title 'back to black' with the colour video going back to black and white.
  • My Chemical Romance - Helena
    This video show the band at a funeral of 'Helena' with the frontman of the band giving the service and when they all close their eyes to pray, 'Helena' gets out of the coffin and starts dancing then closes her eyes and falls back into the coffin. Many other people at the funeral also start dancing and the bands performance is also in the church. The band then carry out the coffin to the hearse whilst other people dance with umbrellas.
  • Avenged Sevenfold - Seize the day http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZOY6eP-q4o

    • This video begins with the band performing behind bars and then cuts away to the frontman with his girlfriend and a camcorder recording each other, all loved up. The other band members then come round and tell him something he then tells his girlfriend who trys to stop him. The next part is of them robbing a store but the police come and catch the frontman who is then put in prison. The Girl then is in her car which is hit by a truck. There is then the group of people at the funeral as the coffin is lowered into the grave, whilst the guitarist plays a rift ontop of the coffin. We then see the frontman in prison having flashbacks to him and his Girlfriend and footage from the camera, he is then let out and they all vistit the grave

    • Funeral For A Friend - Roses for the dead http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVG17cTHkEE

      • This video is another example of flashbacks with the boy on his journey to the rooftop and what he had done before he got there and cut-aways to his mother in his room after he has jumped. There are then flashbacks of when he was younger as he gets to certain places or his mum finds certain objects, ie. there is a flashback to him getting a guitar for his birthday/xmas, it then cuts to his mum holding the guitar. & another example is when he gets to a park and it cuts between him in the park to him as a child on the swing to his mum holding the hat he was wearing when he was younger and then back to him on the swing.
