Possible idea

Well basically, im gonna push for the idea for the Spandau Ballet because I think the idea is really good and im pretty confident with the narrative and performance. Although sometimes things just dont work so i thought i would come up with an idea for more back-up.

Mcfly have done a cover of Rihanna's song 'Umbrella' and it does not have a music video. It has been recorded proffesionally, so the quality is good.

Here is the song - http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=y3HDaHAWmJo

Im thinking the idea could be 'Luke Diamond and the Allstars' cover of Umbrella by Rihanna for example, rather than selling it as an original song. And I am thinking that the video could have a solid perfomance base in the drama block with a lot of extreme close ups and close ups. I was then thinking there could be cuts to shots of the band members performing scenes from Rihannas original video, with backing dancers, dancing in the rain, painting a member of the band gold, and maybe smoke and dancign with umbrellas.

This will be done in a funny way, as they will be a young band, appealing to their young audience, that will already be familiar with the original video, with thier sence of humour.
