Song Lyrics

Carole King - I Feel The Earth Move Lyrics

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down,
I feel my heart start to trembling
Whenever you're around

Ooh, baby, when I see your face
Mellow as the month of May
Oh, darling, I can't stand it
When you look at me that way

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down,
I feel my heart start to trembling
Whenever you're around

INSTRUMENTAL

Oh, darling, when you're near me
And you tenderly call my name
I know that my emotions
Are something I just can't tame
I've just got to have your, baby ah ah now, yeah

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down, a tumbling down
I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down, a tumbling down
I just lose control
Down to my very soul
I get a hot and cold all over, all over, all over, all over

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down, tumbling down
I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down...til fade

Brainstorm of Possible Shots

After deciding on a song we have started to discuss possible scenes and shots that we could film;

1) Pan from little girl to the mirror, we see her reflection, when the camera then pans back it falls upon the older girl in the same position as her younger self.
2) Black and white for the entire little girl scene and colour for the older girl.
3) The beginning will start with stills of various girly things in the room, two flashes of stills to every beat.
4) Close ups of mouths and eyes of the older girl to sexualise the older of the two girls, this will show a transition into womanhood.
5) The little girl is trying on all her mothers’ makeup and clothes, especially high heels. She tries to do a move in the heels, but trips and falls, when she gets up she steps out of the close-up of the high heels and then from the other side, in steps the older girl wearing the shoes and does the move perfectly.
6) At 40 seconds change into older girl.
7) At 1 min instrumental begins and finished 30 seconds later.(dancing in instrumental)
8) At the instrumental part, the older girl finishes her make up, turns round to the camera, the shot changes to in front of her where she winks or blows a kiss, it will pan out from her face to reveal a completely different location (dance scene)
9) Flirting with camera, up against a plain background.

Meeting (to discuss final track selection)

After several minor disagreements, we came to a decision on a track by Carole King entitled 'I Feel The Earth Move', and although we had all previously heard the song, we had no knowledge of Carole King herself, consequently we agreed that the song choice would be suitable as it was unlikely that other's would associate the song with hers when watching our video.

Zahra kindly volunteered to portray the artist, as Carole's voice is arguably indistinct yet strong, allowing us to cast someone who almost anyone that appears confident on screen.

Ideas for the video;

• at the beginning we'd have a little girl singing to her teddies with her hairbrush in a girly kind of room


• transition to her as an older person...singing to the same song while getting ready to go out


• we'll keep cutting back and fourth between the two

Ryan and i had a brainstorming session during a single free period, here are some of our ideas:

• little girl and older will have the same mannerisms to make it clear they are the same person i.e putting on make-up (the girl could use her mums stuff but both of them will have the same dresser), putting on shoes and jewellery. the girl could also try a little dance once she has finished doing herself up but trips over because her shoes are too big, but the woman would do the dance perfectly. (the dance would only be a couple of simple moves but the woman does it in a more sexualised way maybe?)

To do:

• Zahra will get in touch with a potential 'little girl' called Leah who she works with at her local church choir who definately loves to perform.


• We need to brainstorm ideas about clothes and location

the best group

hay!
so just in case your friend doesn't get back to you Zahra, i found a remix of Mr postman and i'm uploading the awful video that some dancing kids made to it, its the only way that you can hear it!!!




so hear it is, we can cut out some of the beginning because it repeats itself a little
ignore the silly kids and just concentrate on the music, it goes really quiet at one point but just strain to listen.
you can hear it again at the next meeting because its on my computer.

my friend said him and his friends wouldn't mind dancing, but said that - if it were routine, we'd need sometime in order to teach them the steps... maybe when we return in summer, we can start drawing screenshots and choreograph the video n.n
