This music video proposal challenges negative stereotypes about men by showing a man experiencing and expressing a range of emotions after a breakup. The narrative follows the man through the five stages of grief and loss as he deals with the breakup. While various locations were initially considered, the story focuses on locations like the man's house, parks, and public transportation to depict his isolation and depression. The lyrics and scenes are synchronized to express the emotions and messages in the song.

1. Music video proposal
By Kofoworola Williams

2. Representation of men
Within my music video I will be
challenging the negative stereotypes of
men being unemotional.
As the majority of media presents men
to be only having one emotion which is
angry and be always macho.
However I want to show that men can
be more just one emotion but can be
more than what the media makes them
out to be.

3. The narrative
The narrative for my music video is about a man going
through a brutal break up and showing his process through his
grief.
I show the man going through the stages of grief and loss
which are:-
1. Denial and Isolation
2. Anger
3. Bargaining
4. Depression
5. Acceptance

4. Location
While I did originally want to
have a variety of locations to
through, I realised that the issue
was that when going through the
stages, a person wouldn’t go out
to many places since they would
be stuck in isolation and
depression.
Locations that were used
however was my house,
Alexander palace, parks, bus
stops and buses.

5. Lyrics referring to the video
• With a lot of the song you can see the
actor saying a lot of the lyrics such as
“Over you now.” and “La, la, la, la, la”
shown through an high angle shot.
• In a specific part of the song that says
“Don't think I'm struggling to mend.”
where I show the character breaking
down and crying, this is suppose to
show the true emotions he is feeling
but also how he’s talking to his ex trying
to be strong.
• For the chorus, we have the character in
the car, being angry while driving.
