Originally we were going to make a parody to Rocky soundtrack 'Eye of the Tiger' but decided it wasn't very original after discovering many people have used this idea. We had to come up with a new and original idea so we could plan for the filming. Eventually we decided on using a song that has a beat that constantly changes throughout the song to allow a quirky style through the use of rhythmic editing to both the narrative and performance.
We found these traits in a song performed by Hot Chip called 'Over and Over'. As the song is themed around the role of repetitiveness we decided to use this as the main theme in our song. For a narrative we thought that we shouldn't just throw in anything that is repetitive as it would look unprofessional. Instead we have decided to incorporate codes for the role of repetitiveness such as a 'corporate job' as it is if they (corporate workers) are consumed like robots if you like as their jobs do not seem to have much variety, mainly involving a routine. Obviously we would like to involve other codes for repetitiveness such as capture camera shots of the main character walking through revolving doors, on escalators as well as incorporate this in with the main characters repetitive routine.
We felt that this song has a quirky edge to it through the change in the beat throughout the song which we could manipulate to our advantage by adding short quick edits to the music which should grab the audiences attention and keep them engaged. Making the music video more interesting.
