costume and personality and generally who he is as a character.

character. He walks past the camera.
0.20 0.33 Mid-shot of the male protagonist in front of a mirror lip-synching. He
Uptown girl will be doing things such as grooming his hair, making himself look
She's been living in her uptown world presentable but the audience can still infer he is downtown.

Dance performance of the male protagonist throughout these lyrics,
I'm gonna try for an uptown girl moving to the beat of the music. This will be filmed using a tracking
She's been living in her white bred world shot.
As long as anyone with hot blood can
And now she's looking for a downtown man
That's what I am

And when she knows what however at first the audience only see her silhouette from a full length
She wants from her time shot of her shadow on the ground. Close up shots of her feet, jewellery,
And when she wakes up accessories so we can interpret she is a woman. A long shot of the back
And makes up her mind of her walking. She is portrayed to be walking towards the downtown
man and his outside location.

(0.56-0.57) The video switches back to a mid-shot of the male


protagonist (and possible background dancers) lip synching, looking
towards the direction in which she is walking from.

protagonists face where her beauty is accentuated. Zooms out to a full
