It's cheesy, very 80s and my brother's favourite film. It revolves (possible pun) around roller skating and had loads of bright colours.

Being so iconic, people are bound to pick out similarities in our idea to Take On Me- girl meets boy, one is from a different world, they don't fit.
For Dance Floor also, we were thinking of make up similar to Adam Ant and David Bowie.

Ran Out Of Love will also have a lot of Bowie references revolving around a maze. She could also be wearing red shoes to emphasise the influence of Bowie.
In Hot City Nights, we wanted the band/drums to drum up paint and colours, to later reveal a stencil of the band logo. We were looking for a aesthetic like the Blue Man Group.

However the actual paint maybe a problem with locations (we will have to check and see where we could film and also clean up).
Alternatively, we could use sand or powder instead. Paramore to this in their video Now which is quite similar to the band's look and feel- bright colours, fun, enjoyable.

As soon as I heard the songs and the fact the band was based on 80s vibes, I automatically thought of Gerard Way's video Millions.
I thought we could edit some videos like this, the cheesy low quality 80s visuals.

The band sent a link to Muse's Madness video for ones they wanted it to be like. However, being an avid fan of Muse, I thought it was a bit dark for their songs and came up with better alternatives.
We could have the band in Hot City Nights on the TV screens following the protagonists around much like in Knights of Cydonia.

Panic Station is a much better example for the group's vibe and also similar to our video ideas.
There is also an example of a city maze that we were after for Ran Out Of Love (it doesn't have to be a garden maze).
