1, 2, 3, 4 - First Draft.

At the beginning of 1,2,3,4, there is a girl sitting outside on a step, with a guitar. My idea is to have the camera at the same height as the girl sitting down, and maybe to capture the wind blowing through her hair.

When the line "old teenage hopes are alive at your door..." plays the girl stands up and begins to walk towards and through a door. She is met on the other side of the door by the camera (in the studio).

The next few verses/chorus', there'll be lots of different shots of the girl - in every take the girl will be in a new outfit, and standing in a different place to the previous shot.

For the second verse there'll be a 'memory' segment, of the girl standing in a field, with a boy who is playing acoustic guitar. The girl is holding a balloon while singing along.

For the last part of the song, more and more people should arrive in the studio with different instruments, all singing along, having a good time - a huge friendly atmosphere. The song should end with the girl letting go of the balloon, in the middle of the field.

The last part is also going to have memory segments in it, from the field scenes.

The establishment of past and present is that the Past will hopefully have a slightly blue tint, or soft glow distortion effect on it, so it becomes dreamlike. The present will be colourful and bright.

Close Ups on the lips/eyes etc would be interesting for the "1, 2, 3, 4"'s as well as the footage of the girl in the different outfits etc.
