props

Key Props!We will be using many different props in our music video but this PowerPoint features the most iconic

ones.

The Ring • The ring is a main symbol of her

relationship as she is engaged to be married. The ring also signifies the end of her relationship when it is removed and thrown.

Snow White Doll• We decided to add in using the

doll as it links in with the song lyrics ‘Snow white said when I was young’ and links to the whole fairytale idea which is the main theme of the song.

Photograph (Ripped)

During the music video when Imogen is at the dressing table she takes down a photograph of her and her fiancée and then later on in the video she takes this photograph off of the fridge and rips it up. This is key as this is what sparks the final argument between them.

Smashed Wine Bottle

• The smashed wine bottle is significant of their relationship as it is smashed during an argument and is cleared away when she is about to leave him. It signifies the turning point in the relationship and the moving on.

Wedding Magazines/Photos• With these props its a constant ‘her reality vs. her fantasy’ the wedding

magazine and photos are key as they are her fantasy/dream.

Empty Glass• Okay so not an important one but

probably my favourite! We had to set the table up to make it look like Imogen and her fiancée had just had dinner, we created this by setting up the table with plates etc. To make the wine glasses look more believable I poured some strawberry Ribena into them to make it look like they had been drinking wine, we done this also with the smashed wine bottle on the floor.

To Me, You Are Perfect

These are the plac-cards we have chosen to use from the ‘Love Actually – To Me You Are Perfect’ scene for our intertextual reference to the film.

To Me, You Are Perfect

As our chorus isn't that long we decided to only take four plac-cards from the original and add

on ‘Always’ in ‘& my wasted heart will always love you’. As these four were in our opinion the most important plac cards

as they feature the main message and humour. Our

audience will be able to identify that it is from Love

Actually.
