Ideas - Alice in Wonderland

From my interpretation of "Pilot" by Amber Rubarth, I got the impression of trying to find inspiration and failing to do so.

Initially for the music video, I wanted an Alice in Wonderland concept for the music video, as "Alice"/"Amber" stumbles across different fairytale characters in a unique and surreal world. As I carefully considered all the elements realistically, I decided that there are many things to consider:

  • The costumes and props: a number of costumes would be necessary such as Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, Captain Hook, fairies, various animal costumes. Props would include a sword, a pocket watch,  fairy wands etc. This could be expensive.
  • At least 5 people for cast: As Alice/Amber stumbles through a fantasy world, she finds many different characters - a lot of people need to be cast. The problem with this is how to attain so many people at one time. Having a high number of cast for the music video makes it difficult as people could be unreliable. It is important that everyone shows up on time, and it would be easier if I required few cast.
  • There are very few places that could be presented in a "fantasy" atmosphere. A number of forests and woods in the surrounding areas would have to be looked at.
