WEEK 1


Originally, we had the idea of using the element of time because of the title of our song 'Sexy Cinderella'. We looked at the movie 'Groundhog Day'. It is a 1993 American comedy film directed by Harold Ramis, starring Bill Murray and Andie MacDowell. It was written by Ramis and Danny Rubin, based on a story by Rubin. Murray plays Phil Connors, an egocentric PittsburughTV weatherman who, during a hated assignment covering the annual Groundhog day event in Punxsutawney, finds himself repeating the same day over and over again. After indulging in hendonism and numerous suicide attempts, he begins to reexamine his life and priorities.Phil wakes up to find that he is reliving February 2. The day plays out exactly as it did before, with no one else aware of the time loop, and only Phil aware of past events.

We then wanted to see a music video, which had the same lelments and plot as 'Groundhog day'. After doing research we came across Craig David's song '7 days'. In this music video, Craig david wakes up one morning and finds himself meeting a young lady who he is infactuated with. He finds himself making simple yet annoying mistakes everyday until he finally gets it right. We found this very interesting because we realised that we could link it to the key idea of time. We decided that this so called 'Sexy Cinderella' would relive her day again and again until she got it right. However, we realised that this would be too complicated therefore we decided that our music video would be very simple.
