5. Queens Of The Stone Age are an American rock band from Palm Desert, California. They formed in 1997 under the name of ‘Gamma Ray’ by Josh Homme, after the break up of his previous band ‘Kyuss’. They then had to change there name of Gamma ray after a German rock band also called ‘Gamma Ray’ were threatening to sue. Queens of the stone age developed a style of riff-oriented, heavy music which Josh described as robot rock, saying that he “wanted to create a heavy sound based on a solid jam, and just pound it into you head”. ABOUT THE BAND
6. The bands first album that was released was self titled in 1998, this album wasn’t very popular. However, in a September, 2008 issue of NME Magazine, Josh Homme stated that he was going to remaster the 1998 self titled album for a November 2008 release. Since, the release date has been pushed back to November 2009. ‘ Rated R’ it was released in 2000, this album was there breakthrough album, which reached high positions on charts worldwide. The album garnered positive reviews and received a lot more attention than their debut, despite the fact that the lyrics to "Feel Good Hit of the Summer" were deemed by mega-retailer Wal-Mart to promote drug use, almost causing the record to get pulled from store shelves. Songs include Monsters in the Parasol and Feel good hit of the summer.
7. Songs for the Deaf is the third studio album. Released in 2002, the album features Foo Fighters and Nirvana member Dave Grohl as a guest drummer. Like their other albums, Songs for the Deaf has a large number of guest musicians, a signature of the band's releases. Following the breakthrough Rated R , this album is widely regarded as Queens of the Stone Age's best work, garnering near-universal acclaim from critics, whilst earning the band's first gold record certification in the U.S., having sold 986,000 copies in the country. Songs for the Deaf is loosely considered as a concept album, taking the listener on a drive from Mojave Desert to Los Angeles the while tuning into radio stations from towns on the way such as Banning and Chino Hills, California. Songs include Go With The Flow, No One Knows and the song we’re going to use for our music video, A Song For The Dead

11. Costumes The idea for the music video is to go with the horror genre and to create a chase scene. Within the chase scene we are going to have zombies and two people being chased. The zombies will have ripped and old looking clothes which we will cover in fake blood and mud. They will also have a lot of face paint on and we will style their hairs to make them look dead. As for the two people being chased, we have decided to make them look gradually worse throughout the video. We will do this by ripping their clothes more and more at each shot and covering them in mud and fake blood.
12. Locations We have decided to film our music video in a forest. Preferably we would like it to be dark or at dusk and for the forest to be very dense and for the spot we are filming in to be helped by the amount of trees and how shaded it is. We want it to look as realistic as possible and will be trying to take as many lights as possible to create a good effect and to help filming conditions and lighting. The locations we have considered are:
13. Props As well as having a narrative in our music video we are also going to feature a band and a performance aspect. So for the performance we will need instruments which will include; a microphone, a drum kit, a bass guitar, and two electric guitars. We will also be using a lot of lighting. At the beginning of the video we are going to have a car breaking down so the car will be another prop.
14. Roles The band Lead Singer and guitar: Tommi Evans Guitar 2: Jade Gibbons Bass: Jonny Sabiston Drums: Harry Jenkinson Other main characters from chase scene Girl: Emily Adams Boy: Patrick Moran Zombies: Various people
15. Our video will be half performance based, and will contain a performance that will link with the setting of our storyline.
