Music video idea 3

Kanye West - Gone [Late Registration]





This concept would be a black and white video, and would involve the beginning showing a record player and then a hand placing a record into the record player (retro) and then the track would begin with the old sample playing, and as the player is starting the main character will sit down at a keyboard (electronic or normal) and begin to play the chords for the song and start the rap. there would be some shots of the keyboard as he raps and plays the keyboard, the idea is for it to be a mixture of modern and more organic old school music.

The performance would then continue with another character sitting down and playing the keyboard with him, and the main  characters gets up as the other continues to play the keyboard. As he gets up and moves forward you see a bunch of production crew rushing around pushing things around whist a team put a suit jacket on him and button up his shirt and but a bow tie on him and apply stage makeup to his face while he still raps during all of this. He will be looking at the camera every now and then whilst walking and he continues to pass people as he walks and the camera follows him and people pass him a drink which he sips and puts down, he also gets thrown a basketball which he bounces a bit while rapping to the camera and throws the ball away. Throughout this he would be walking through a hallway which would appear to be backstage somewhere. I would like the video to finish before he actually gets to the performance, so the video would follow him walking and passing different people and taking pictures with people until at the end he gets to the 'stage door' and as he opens it the music video ends.

An  artist with a similar image to the one I would try to convey here would be Justin Timberlake as he has a good look for this kind of track although he is not a rapper his look fits the part, specifically in his music video 'suit and tie'.
