Los Angeles Is Burn MV Concept

"LOS ANGELES IS BURNING" Music Video Concept

Written by James Carlson

Opening on the band, they're in a cage, like a dog kennel if you would. Set in a large black space, lights shine down on the band as they preform. Weird part is that around them, outside the kennel is a bunch of paparazzi taking photos of them and recording what the band does.

While the band plays, we cutaway at certain points to see the paparazzi taking more pictures and taping other people inside the kennels. They look familar? They do as they're your basic hollywood celebrities and they're stuck in this.... Freakshow, if you will and are getting gawked by the paparazzi. Some embrace it, some just wanna be left alone.

During the breakdown, we take a calm break as we see the lead singer singing the lyrics as he calmly looks at a picture we can't see. Looking at it not happy, he takes a match and lights it up. He shows the picture is of Los Angeles to the camera before lighting the picture on fire.

During the solo, the lead guitarist plays the solo as we switch back and forth from the guitarist to the celebrities not happy with how things are. Like they wanna do something.

Soon by the last part of the song, the band and the celebrities have broken down the walls that keep them trapped and start killing the paparazzi in many gruesome ways, drumsticks in eyes, guitars getting wacked against their heads, microphone shoved in mouths, so on. Last shot is the picture the singer lit up, we see Los Angeles before the flames fully engulf the picture as the singer walks away.
