Some ideas for the Music Video: Choice in camera shots

I think because we are doing a music video mainly centred around emotions and touch we should have a plot of close ups. I think close ups on people holding hands or people embracing will give a part of the story while not actually giving too much away, giving us more chances to keep the story going while also stopping it from being purely story based as we will do a close up of the artist's mouth, keeping into the theme of close ups.
I also think we should do some midshots of people in groups while trying to keep most of the background hidden, meaning those in the frame are our central focus. Also sometimes the background of a setting can come off looking tacky and can ruin the shot.
