American Psycho is a movie which provided us with lots of inspiration, all of which can be taken from the scene above. The character of Patrick Bateman is someone that clearly prepares for his kills with precision and organisation. This is a feature that we want to portray in our video. We do not what a cluttered video that is crammed with constant death and murder and instead want a lead up, and a motive to be the main factor of the video. The kill itself is a aspect which has it's similarities to the previous inspiration (Time to Dance by The Shoes). We like how we could portray this - however we must think of a way to show the kill in a way that will suit the video and it's genre.

Purge Horror Film Idea
Through watching this film previously, it has given me an idea into what our main character "The Hunter" could act like in the video and the type of styling we could use for the violent character.
Time to Dance - The Shoes (Music Video Inspiration)
Time to Dance is a video which we gained objective for our music video's narrative. It provides a creepy tone of someone that clearly holds a grudge. The violence narrative aspects are great, however it was the conflicting feeling of the video and the music which attracted us the most.
From the video, we gained the idea of having a murder narrative too. It was something that fit with our song choice well and could suit our genre too.

The Witcher 3 : Wild Hunt Inspiration
After deciding on our song choice we went out looking for inspiration. My immediate thought was the look of the Witcher Medallion from the Witcher game series. This medallion looks menacing, violent and aggressive, which would suit the overall theme of our video and song. The main aspect that I like from this is how the colour scheme suits each other. I like the use of black with light uses of red, which really stands out.

To start with, we had an issue
collectively in coming to a decision on a band name as we all had our own
preferences/ideas. So in order to narrow down the multitude of options we had
accumulated, we looked into key words and terms that are related to the category
of our music video. After discussing a number of names we all agreed on having
'RENEGADE' as the band name. The word is a synonym for things such as 'rebel'
or 'outlaw' which we felt suited both our band and our song choice.
