Music Video Treatment By Olivia Halliwell Williams.
The song by Jessie J called 'Price Tag' is a upbeat fun song from the album called 'Who You Are' which was released in 2011. This music video supports the exciting vibe the song gives off. The song implies that life isn't all about money and it's a good lesson to learn. My video will use this message throughout the music video i am making. The music starts and the video starts with an opening of recording of the sun set going up but from a long shot but i will speed it up. The setting will be in a rural area. I want my music video to focus on the lyrics and the words and the meanings to the lyrics. The video will then have a rich good looking, tall, young male walking down a high street where there are loads of shops and they will be buying loads of things then there is a 20 year old, hobo looking female who lives on the street who can't afford anything. The young man will be wearing a smart suit with very finely polished brogues. The woman was wearing torn jeans with a old Reebok jumper. The music will show that 'it's not about the money'. Then in the music video it shows a close up of the homeless persons facial expressions and then show's the facial expression on the other person who is buying loads. This close up shows there emotions. Both of their emotions are completely different. The music video keep flashing back to a picture of a large amount of money when the lyrics saying 'Ain't about the cha-ching,cha-ching Ain't about the ba-bling, ba-bling' referring to money. Then in the video there is a wide shot of them both walking by each other then the both catch each others eyes. 'We'll pay them with love tonight' in the lyrics playing when the catch each others eye sight. However they have seen each other before. They then go on to fall in love in the music video then after this moment there is a long shot through the window of them really happy working class couple with two children. The music video show's that it isnt about the price tag and the play on words in the lyrics show this with the connect with the video as this show's that it's not about the money it's about the making people happy or about not mattering how much money you have. I have focused on a video like this because the lyrics say about not worrying about money/price tag and enjoy what you have. I have used a mixture of shots such as: long shot, close up and a wide shot to show different points of things (emotional and physical). On the video there are certain spots that change on the beat of the song. This makes the video and the music work together better.
LYRICS FOR PRICE TAG (JESSIE J) -
Okay, Coconut man, Moon Heads and pea
You ready
Seems like everybody's got a price,
I wonder how they sleep at night.
When the sale comes first,
And the truth comes second,
Just stop for a minute and
Smile
Why is everybody so serious?
Acting so damn mysterious?
Got your shades on your eyes
And your heels so high
That you can't even have a good time
[Pre-chorus:]
Everybody look to their left (yeah)
Everybody look to their right (uh)
Can you feel that (yeah)
We're paying with love tonight
[Chorus:]
It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag
Ain't about the (uh) Cha-Ching Cha-Ching
Ain't about the (yeah) Ba-Bling Ba-Bling
Wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag.
[Jessie J]
We need to take it back in time,
When music made us all unite!
And it wasn't low blows and video hoes,
Am I the only one getting tired?
Why is everybody so obsessed?
Money can't buy us happiness
Can we all slow down and enjoy right now
Guarantee we'll be feeling alright
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus]
[B.o.B]
Yeah yeah
Well, keep the price tag
And take the cash back
Just give me six strings and a half stack
And you can, can keep the cars
Leave me the garage
And all I, yes all I need
Are keys and guitars
And guess what, in 30 seconds
I'm leaving to Mars
Yeah we leaving across
These undefeatable odds
It's like this man
You can't put a price on a life
We do this for the love
So we fight and sacrifice
Every night
So we ain't gonna stumble and fall
Never
Waiting to see a sign of defeat
Uh uh
So we gonna keep everyone
Moving their feet
So bring back the beat
And then everyone sing
It's not about the money
[Chorus 2x]
[Jessie J ‒ Outro]
Yeah yeah
Oh-oh
Forget about the price tag
You ready
Seems like everybody's got a price,
I wonder how they sleep at night.
When the sale comes first,
And the truth comes second,
Just stop for a minute and
Smile
Why is everybody so serious?
Acting so damn mysterious?
Got your shades on your eyes
And your heels so high
That you can't even have a good time
[Pre-chorus:]
Everybody look to their left (yeah)
Everybody look to their right (uh)
Can you feel that (yeah)
We're paying with love tonight
[Chorus:]
It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag
Ain't about the (uh) Cha-Ching Cha-Ching
Ain't about the (yeah) Ba-Bling Ba-Bling
