Rita Ora - Love & War initial ideas

From looking at the lyrics we realised that there is a different meaning behind the words love and war. Instead of actually being about war or fighting it is more about the good and bad parts of relationships. For example she is singing about making love and not making each other angry or upset.

This then lead us to think differently about what the content of the video should show, therefore we came up with the idea similar to the music video 'Love the way you lie' by Rihanna and Eminem.
We decided to show how a boy's fighting causes problems between him and his partner and how she can not take it anymore and wants him to change. We were hoping to do this by setting up a scene where the boy is in an organised fight that is getting out of control and people are watching, shouting and betting on each of the fighters. This would happen when the music is saying 'this fighting shit is getting to old.' It could flick between two scenes where his partner is waiting for him to come and he chooses the fight over her.
Later on he could turn up at her houses bruised and bloody and and the girl has had enough and they argue.
We wants to use a range of shots such a close-up of the female singer occasionally similar to the shot of Rihanna from the Love The Way You Lie video:

And mid and long shots of for the fight as well as slow motion to emphasise the pain he is suffering: 

And shots showing her loneliness, which would vary during the video as she would be doing different things like sitting at the dinner table waiting for him and on the bed waiting for his call: 

There may be a possibility of doing flashbacks to when everything was good between them at the beginning or at the end:
