Specific Research: Birdy - 'People Help the People'

There are two official videos for the song that we want to use, the British one, shot in 2011, an d a French one, shot in 2012. Both videos use the black and white theme we want to use in our own video yet have very different concepts. We have mainly focused on the British video for our inspiration but like certain aspects of the French one, such as walking down the street miming along. The French video also incorporates colour into the video, something we plan on using ourselves. 

We plan on using a dance sequence, as suggested in our initial brainstorming as blogged previously. We plan on using the contemporary dancers as shown in the video below as they are trained members of a dance/performing arts school. We have contacted them via text and they have agreed to also allow us use of their original choreography as shown in the video. They have also agreed to perform the dance for us. The video shows choreography for the whole song, however, we plan on only having a section of the music video in dance, picking and choosing the best parts in the final editing process to use.
