Treatment

Before it's even asked, me and Alex have already worked out all the kinks to lighting fires so 'filmability' is dead on. Here it is:

FADE IN

ALEX is tied to a chair in an dark, empty, concrete room. The
music starts and petrol is being poured on the ground. A match is lit, falls to the ground and the petrol is ignited. A silhouetted character walks out the door.

MAX wakes up groggily from being knocked out. When he realises ALEX is missing he starts to running. He runs through various alleys ways when he notices smoke pouring out the doors of a small warehouse. He runs in and pulls her out.

They regain their breathe and both start to run again. They find themselves in another garage, where they gather petrol, cloth and sticks. They arrive at the unknown villain's office, light the sticks and smash open the door.

FADE OUT

Basically the song sounds quite heavy and fast, so an action packed, fast paced music video is exactly what I'm going for. It also sounds quite raw and dirty and that's what gave me the idea for dirty-warehouse-type locations and the strong focus on the elemental imagery of fire (it also mentions fire in the lyrics as well).

During the narrative, clips of the band playing the song are going to be included to fill in the gaps of the boring parts that can be skipped. Also, the narrative is purposely lacking a motive to why it is happening to the main characters as well as a conclusion as this leaves it open to speculation and therefore gives it repeatability.
