Song for music video

I have been listening to several different artists including TV On The Radio, Radiohead, Beirut and Battles. I have decided upon a song by Fever Ray called I'm Not Done.

Here is some information about the song,  I'm Not Done, which i have chosen to create a music video for:

Writer: Karin Dreijer Andersson
Producer: Fever Ray, Van Rivers & The Subliminal Kid
Distributor: Rabid
Performers:
Vocals - Karin Dreijer Andersson


The song does not already have a video for it, which means that I will be able to have more freedom in the making of without having to worry about it being too much like the existing video. I have linked two videos below, one of which is one of her songs which does have a video (the other is the actual song). The music video for the song which is not the one I will be doing is called When I Grow Up and I will take inspiration from her movement and appearance in my video.

I'm Not Done (This is the song I will be making a music video for):

Below is also the artwork of the album, which the song is on (Fever Ray)

Fever Ray is the solo work of Karin Dreijer Andersson, who is part of the swedish brother-sister duo, The Knife. Her self titled solo début, Fever Ray, was released in 2009 under the Rabid label. Rabid was formed by the members of Honey Is Cool in 1998 of which Karin was a member. After the success of The Knife's most recent album, Silent Shout, Karin took time out to have her third child and it was during this post natal period where she wrote the album Fever Ray. She composed the songs in a state that is common among new parents - "awake, but exhausted, where reality blurs into imagination and ideas flutter in and out." Taken from a biography about Fever Ray by Steve Yates.  Much of the album is stark, moody and occasionally sombre and I'm Not Done is one of the more upbeat songs on the album and the title is "a gesture of defiance against Karin's own thoughts of retirement." This is what she had to say about this song:


“That was the last song I wrote and in contrast to many tracks that are more about anxiety and depression, that one is very full of life,” she says. “Sometimes, when you’re as old as I am now, you think you’re going to quit, and people around you think you’re going to quit. But then you have days when you realise how good music can be, there’s so much left to explore and so much left to do. That’s why I sometimes feel I’ll never quit.”

To reflect the more upbeat nature of the song (in comparison with the others on the album), I will add more colour to the video and include a feeling of freedom to reflect the meaning behind the title of the song.
