Planning - Song choice, Ed Sheeran 'Wake Me Up'


Ed Sheeran: 'Wake me up' lyric video. 




















This is our initial song choice. 

Initial ideas upon reading the lyrics: 

I should ink my skin
With your name
And take my passport out again
And just replace it
See I could do without a tan
On my left hand, where my fourth finger meets my knuckle
- ring on a males finger     
And I should run you a hot bath
And fill it up with bubbles - close up on bubbles against blue sky with natural light from sun shining through them 
'Cause maybe you're lovable
And maybe you're my snowflake
And your eyes turn from green to gray and in the winter I'll - close up of two female eyes. 
Hold you in a cold place
And you should never cut your hair
'Cause I love the way you flick it off your shoulders - over the shoulder shot, back of a woman flicks hair while star watches on in background facing camera. 
And you will never know just how beautiful you are to me
But maybe I'm just in love when you wake me up
And would you ever feel guilty
If you did the same to me
Would you make me a cup of tea - Tea, close up shot, while it steams with a window in background with condensation.
To open my eyes in the right way
And I know you love Shrek
'Cause we've watched it twelve times
But maybe you're hoping for a fairy tale too
And if your DVD breaks, today
You shoulda got a VCR
'Cause I never owned a Blu-Ray
True say
And now I've always been s*** at computer games and your brother always beats me
And if I lost, I go all cross
And chuck all the controllers at the TV
And then
you'd laugh at me - laughing woman
And be asking me
If I'm gonna be home next week
And then you'd lie with me till I fall asleep
And flutter eyelash on my cheek between the sheets- eyelash medium close up. 
And you will never know just how beautiful you are to me
But maybe I'm just in love when you wake me up
I think you hate the smell of smoke - smoke image
You always tryna get me to stop
But you drink as much as me
And I get drunk a lot
So I'll take you to the beach
And
walk along the sand And I'll - two pairs of feet walking along the sand, low angle shot.  
Make you a heart pendant - heart shaped rock on the sand as the waves wash up to it but before they can carry it away a womans hand picks it up.  
With a pebble held in my hand
And I'll carve it like a necklace
So the heart falls where your chest is
And now a piece of me is a piece of the beach and it falls just where it needs to be
And rests peacefully
So you just need to breathe
To feel my heart against yours now
Against yours now
'Cause maybe I'm just in love when you wake me up
Or maybe I'm just in love when you wake me up
Maybe I fell in love when you woke me up

How this research has influenced my planning and creativity: This has allowed me to begin thinking about what types of shots I will use in parallel to some of the lyrics.
