Production Idea

Music Video: Arctic Monkeys - Secret Door

Lead Character walking through the city and sees these strange looking jesters setting up for something. He stops to look at them and looks right down the camera close up of the jesters mouth as he says the first line of the song, then they all start dancing, and our main character walks on. Gets back and gets shouted at by his girlfriend straight away as he's late, they're going to a boring, middle class dinner party. He get's ready quite quickly and remembers glimpses of the jesters in slow motion. At the dinner party he seems out of place, out of mind and really doesn't want to be there. people keep trying to talk to him but he just ignores them and keeps singing the song. They leave him to hold his coat and his glass of champagne at the buffet table. A couple of the less popular guests start talking to him, well really talking to each other in front of him. Then a shot going through all the guests talking about business and all that rubbish up to his eyes then the camera turns back round and he's looking at the guests being the jesters, his fool's on parade. They do a big dance thing. Then the leader of the other jesters who he saw singing earlier sneaks around behind him and comes up and takes it's mask of, it's his old girlfriend we saw in pictures in his room when he was getting ready, they walk off arm in arm and before he goes he turns around and stops to think about the dancing guests/jesters and we see them behind him then he walks on again, out of the dinner party house and down the drive, holding his arm out and no one else is there.
