Another Idea

I have come up with an idea which is more of a storyline idea rather then a editing idea. This includes three complete different male characters, one a business man, another a player who always gets the lady's and a third, a geek/nerdy character. Also, a female character as the song is about a man trying to attract a woman. I took the film budget, locations and characters into consideration when i thought of this idea.

The story to the idea was that the woman dates all three men, the business man buys her loads of jewellery, the player is really attractive and the geek has a great personality but cant offer anything else. Then further on in the video, the business man and the player lose her interest such as treating her badly, cheating etc and the video ends with her choosing the geek over them all. The moral is basically 'it's not all about money or looks'

I thought that this was a good idea because some of the lyrics in the song state "I'm no superman, I hope you like me the way i am". This meant that the film would relate to the song lyric and also to the type of song it is. (love song?)

Also, this idea is not too expensive and can be filmed quite easily IN Cambridge such as in a restaurant, bowling alley and other places in Cambridge. Where the jewellery idea comes in, this can simply be a shot of a jewelers window showing the woman and the business man shopping so therefore no jewellery i necessary.
