An Initial Idea: Trouble In Paradise - The Like

The Like - Trouble In Paradisefound onRock

After listening to various songs on Spotify, I found a song that could be quite good for our project. The song is just over 3 minutes so works on the time limit, and is not a well known song so works under that criteria too.
The song is called Trouble In Paradise by The Like, an American Indie/Rock band. After listening to the songs and reading the lyrics, I have come up with an idea for our music video. Well when you hear the phrase 'trouble in paradise', it refers to the lows and the problems in a relationship, so for our music video I think we should have a narrative as well as a performance.
I picture our band standing on a stage/elevated area at someone's house, at a houseparty. This will show us to be a young, fun, outgoing band, one which our audience will be able to relate to. This is also good as all we would need is a house for our setting, so if we just got someone's house, and filled it up with many of our friends, we would create a great atmosphere. (And we could probably get quite a few extras to be in it: who wouldn't want an excuse party?)

I imagine all three of us standing there with microphones and guitars, and maybe another person behind on the drums. We will play the band for the whole of the video, and there will be another actress to play the role of 'Ruby', as the lyrics suggest.
At the beginning of the video we will see an argument between Ruby and her boyfriend at the party (cut in between our performance all the time), reflecting the title of the song. We will see her push him away and reach for some shots, and basically drink till she forgets all her troubles. [For the video we would obviously use water or soft drinks and just get the actress to act drunk!]
The video will basically see the destruction of this girl in this one night where she's just broken up/had an argument with her boyfriend, reflecting with the lyrics such as 'be careful, you've one life to live, it's still slipping and it's almost too gone, I need you to keep live and kicking' and 'pupils lie like blurred bruise, your lips are cracked and dry'.
During the part of the video where the lyrics say 'hey i hear the grave is a lonely place, just remember that hearts will break', we can see close ups of her face and then static point of view shots which can then be blurred and edited in post production to look like she's drunk.
Finally at the end of the video, our band will run off stage as we see the girl collapsing, with the rest of the crowd around and circling her. This will match with the last lyric of the song 'Ruby don't die'.
