Theme ideas


Themes


 The theme that shines through in our many ideas in our discussions is the 50s theme.  Its brings about such strong imagery to mind that we feel it would be fun to play with the idea further. Paloma Faith herself has said to be inspired by the 50s era making this theme relevant to her music.
She's a modern artist we wanted to reflect that but also incorporate the 50s era. We looked at 50s imagery like advert posters from the time to see the portrayal of women. As we looked further into the role fo a women in the 1950s we saw a great contrast to now. This is another theme we hope to bring forward in our music video, the contrast between the modern day women and a 1950s women. We then went on to look at Anne Taintor's portrayal of women in that time period which shows a twist on the stereotypical look of a 1950s housewife. So this has also influenced our decision to use the 1950s theme.
