My Strange Choice

Skins cast singing Wild World - Cat Stevens https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyMi_itzgFs&list=FLp4CGBaNUhdzZmTqLqxdmhw

This is admittedly a very odd video to have as a music video influence, it is the cast from a TV series called Skins, at the end of the first series all of the cast members sing this song, it fits with all of the situations going on at the time. The reason this is an influence for me is because I like how it makes a sad situation almost funny, for example the person who just got hit by a bus and is thought to be dead starts singing as well, obviously none of the actors are reacting to this singing, even some men in the toilets who are weeing are singing some 'la's and I like this, I like the idea of actors singing like it's nothing, almost like they don't realise it, it creates a strange feeling of it being real but not real at all. I just like how different a way it is to end a series as well. What I wanted to use was the idea of extra characters in my video lip singing backing bits like 'ohh's etc. I thought it would give a strange but maybe quite funny or nice feel to it, but I'm not entirely sure that it will fit yet so I will test it and see.
