Story Board Write Up by James

Intro- Bobby Alexander just standing behind a microphone with a standard white background, creating quite a stripped back beginning of a music video, cut straight to him strumming the intro chords with an extreme close up. Then a further straight cut to a girl looking nervously down at her feet and a boy looking straight into the camera

At the beginning of the first lyric it cuts to Bobby still strumming and singing along with a mid shot possibly zooming into just his mouth singing the words. To incorporate the style in which we try to convey as much emotion as possible

You say that I dont know you like I think I do,

Cuts straight to a boy and girl sitting in bed when the boy tries to look/make contact with the girl but she just turns away followed by a look of dismay on the boys faceAnd that I might not love you if I only knew,

Bobby tapping his foot with maybe just a wooden stool behind him to still show the simplicity of the studioThere's a different (A further  extreme close up on bobby singing, maybe showing a different angle to his mouth to create a bit of  variation)side to you (couple walking through a park side by side, camera mid shot with good weather to create a general sense of well being)that I've never seen,But how (he tries to hold her hand but she moves it away as quick as possible creating unrest between the characters) can I love you if you never let me in?
 (Just a normal close up of bobby singing, yet again from a different angle to create more variation)You belong (extreme close up on the strumming of a guitar) here beside (tries to hold her but she keeps trying to escape) me, never (she gives in to him holding her, cut to mid shot to show unrest between the two of them in uneasy hold) let me go.
I will be (close up of face to try to put across the emotion he/they are going through) here waiting, (him in the same position as before but zooming out to show in actual fact there is no one there)just like I was before. (boy swigs from bottle of alcohol, almost in desperation)
 (Girl at home sitting or laying in bed never still making it blatently obvious something is on her mind, Boy walking down a long path by himself, into the sunset or dusk to almost signify he knows its coming to an end, cuts to a close up of the girl looking away/out of a window just before the next verse starts)

(cuts to a mid face of Bobby singing)Dragging my feet ( mid shot of boy walking – straight cut- close up of boys feet walking)  as I slowly stumble home. (cut again to boys face maybe a close up moving to mid shot of boy looking up to sky and breathing in, almost in a contemplative state)I take in a deep breath,( Cuts to girl looking out of the window, maybe being driven somewhere? Could imply she is going to see him?) the cold night air burns (boy still in original place and as he breathes out he looks down) My Lungs ( Girls playing with fingers and toes in a nervous state of anitciaption)
Thinking about the walk home on (Close up of the boy looking before he crosses the road, almost hoping that she’d turn up) that very first night (girl in oversized top texting away possible extreme close up of what shes texting to him)
You gave me your number (Mid Shot  of bobby playing guitar maybe from a side view)and you mesages made me (boy checks his phone and see’s a message from the girl before breaking into a smile) smile. (straight cut to girls face who pulls a painful/sad smile, possible extreme close up moving to a close up of bobbys face as he starts to sing) 

(Mid shot of boy and girl in kitchen)You belong (girl passes boy toast but avoids eye contact at all times, some sort of barrier in between them) here beside me, (girls walks off possibly out of a door whilst boy still looks confused) never let me go (bobby looking directly into the camera singing)I will be (the couple sitting on a bench he tries to put her arm round her but she just turns away) here waiting, (cut straight back to bobby singing) just like (asks her what’s wrong)I was (couple still on bench while she remains silent) before.
 

(Shot reverse shot of girl looking at boy then boy staring back with almost willing eyes, cuts to an eyeline match extreme close up of guy looking at girl biting her lip, extreme close up of bobby strumming the guitar, possibly shot from down the guitar to show the vibrations, Bobby singing from side shot with clever use of light to now show a prominent light and dark sides to reflect their relationship. Girl tucks hair behind ear trying to keep no eye contact the whole time. Possible fade with bobby playing guitar in the foreground whilst tears start to drip down from the girls eyes)So long, (girl mouths take care)take care,(Bobby goes from mid shot to close up for the words ‘take care’) goodbye.(boy sits there in complete shock)So long,(Cut back to Bobby singing in the same shot as before) take care, (mid shot of girl picking up bag and slowly walking away) goodbye. (Where are you going? I dont know, I dont care.)
So long, take care, goodbye. (Where are you going? I dont know, I dont care.)
So long, take care, goodbye. (Where do you go?) ( break up scene in which boy runs after her grabs her arm pleading her not to go, she yells at him telling him to go- over the shoulder shot, she starts walking away and only looks back once- when the camera cuts to over the shoulder again so we can focus from her tears on her face to the boy standing in the back ground, Bobby strums passionately and sings before the final shot before the final verse of the boys POV shot from the floor to give an idea of perspective and distance)

(cuts to mid shot of Bobby Singing) 
You belong here  (side close up of bobbys head singing)beside me,.(boy stands still as time passes by) never let me go
I will be here waiting, (back to bobby singing and strumming away) just like I was before.(mid-long shot of girl looking at her phone)I can hear (long shot of girl just sitting there crying as she looks out of the window in an almost uni style room) you crying (extreme close up of girl dialling the boys phone and putting it up to her ear)but you're so far away.( boy says hello twice in anticipation, a smile starts to show)Since you left, goodbye ( girl keeps lips pursed and doesn’t say a word as she doesn’t know what to say) is all I can hear you say. (boy keeps trying to say hello as the original smile slowly fades, song ends up with bobby singing yet again into an older style mic, the boy hangs up before the girl bursts out crying in floods of tears. The video ends a close up moving to an extreme long shot of the boy then the girl and finally bobby as he does his last strum!!!!)
