Luke's Feedback on Leith Hill Picnic Idea

• Despite the music video idea sounding rather like Alice In Wonderland, which Luke did not entirely like, the fact is that Leith Hill Place is unattainable for any music videos this year due to past years use and subsequent lack of permission now. 
• Luke did not see the point in the animal masks, other than adding a bizarre element to the music video, on top of the psychedelic 60s costumes, therefore creating a dreamy or triply effect. The hazard about the masks, similar to our first original idea about the robot, is that the masks may look cheap, if they are bought off the internet. 
• He also did not understand the significance of the tea party scene as a pop video narrative is not the same as a film narrative, being similar to the tea party scene in Alice In Wonderland. Therefore Luke told us what he first thought of when hearing the song for the first time. His idea includes Rosie and the orchestra in the track being positioned on top of cars in a traffic jam. He has taken the viewpoint of 'Morning Blues' being a reference to the mundane routines of daily life such as the drive to work and being stuck in traffic. There would also be ball dancing couples on other car roofs around Rosie and the orchestra/band. Rosie would effectively be freeing the public of their boredom on their separate islands, incorporating a universal concept within the video, with the jolly song, however, with a sad underlying meaning shown by the lyrics. The idea of a monotonous day to day journey links to the Rise and Fall of Reginald Perrin. 
• This idea fits perfectly with the song's tempo, however, the idea is far to elaborate and consequently expensive which we do not have the budget for and further restricts Rosie in her music video ideas in the future. 
• We will also have a problem with recruiting extras for the video due Rosie being 18 years old and also the AS and A2 students being the same age, therefore the video will look like a school playground, filming a congregation of teenagers. 
• The blue trails created by Rosie's movement will be hard and time consuming to create in After Effects. Plus we need to lock this effect into the concept of the video more as it may seem slightly random, although the video is called 'Morning Blues'.
