Picking The Song (OLD)

Image
 The following song choices were considered for our music video: 1."Beautiful People" by Ed Sheeran(featuring Khalid) :  reflects the superficial and materialistic lifestyle often associated with fame and high society. The song tells the story of two outsiders who find themselves in a world of wealth, glamour, and excess but realize that it doesn’t align with who they are.This song required a whole set of different locations to be shoot so we were kind of not sure on this one. 2.Bridgerton" Season 3, the song "Give Me Everything" by Pitbull : covered by Archer Marsh, plays during the pivotal carriage scene in Episode 4, where Colin and Penelope confess their feelings and share a kiss. This song speaks to your own journey of courage, love, or taking chances.

Another big inspiration!

  In Bridgerton Season 3, the song "Give Me Everything" by Pitbull, featuring Ne-Yo, Afrojack & Nayer, is featured in a stripped-down cover by Archer Marsh, used in a pivotal scene in episode 4, specifically around minute 47. The song was an inspiration because of its Musical Style & Emotional tone, Bridgerton features a mix of classical covers of popular modern songs, which gives it a unique blend of elegance and modernity. Choose a song from the soundtrack that has an emotional, uplifting feel—whether it’s something romantic, empowering, or full of hope. These elements would set the tone for an inspirational video.So I got inspired to choose this song as our music video so we can show our idea showing love, emotions, feelings and attachment between lovers. As it can  show beautiful connection between two of them and their deep love.
