Previous Enigma ideas

On Friday 27th August Me and Alice met up to discuss ideas about the music video that we will be creating together. Because i found the band i have been in contact with them and we are discussing about meeting up before we start the process of making the music video.

When i started emailing them they were clear that they wanted to star in the music video. In another email the boys had said that they would like to be filmed on the beach.

This is an email sent by James.
"...something along the lines of either filming the band play with all the equipment either outside somewhere or filming just us on the beach..."
James Vivia- bass guitarist/ backing vocals.

While at my house, me and Alice came up with the idea of the band having fun at the beach because the music that was provided sounded relaxing and fun. I came up with the idea of them playing in an arcade and running in the water and Alice came up with the idea of them playing on the sand.

An issue that was brought up between me and Alice was that the band One Direction had already done something similar to our ideas, so we are planning on changing this and making it a narrative music video based around the lyrics.

These are the lyrics to "Weighted Paradise" by Enigma

Sitting by the telephone,
waiting for your call,
only girl on show,
And we got you on the floor,
Right up in the morning,
Let down after four,
Get the bus to paradise,
And that is that!

Chorus X2
Singing on my own,
Singing on my own,
Oh baby,
Singing on my own,

Walking all the way to you,
Just to walk right back,
Get the bus to paradise,
Now that is that,
Traffic lights are flashing,
Telling us to stop,
Want her in the journey,
Forget everything that's right,

Chorus X4


Alice went to see the band play live at the Waterfront in Norwich. She was able to identify the target audience for their music.
