Narrative Ideas- Break Up Scene

I have taken this break up scene from Nicki Minaj's song "right through me"which is based on the narrative of a couple trying to sort through the problems within their relationship. I have chose to look at this break up scene as it involves a script based narrative which is what my group and I discussed about having at the start of the music video. Within this music video, i like the way it is the woman that is seen as the dominant character, which is something that isn't seen often in R&B music videos. However, you can also seen the softer side of her which reveals her to still be in love with the male character. This is something that we aim to reveal as Ne-yo's song is based on the same story however, we aim to make the woman being the one walking out and the male character(Tavonga) being the one doing the chasing.
This break up scene has been told so that the break up has already happened as Beyonce is kicking him out of her house, this break up clearly shows her to be the dominant character in this as the lyrics show her to have money and say that she can find another man in a minute. Its a song that empowers women and makes women out to be independent. This song was clearly made to appeal to the female audience and the narrative of the women being the dominant character I believe makes women like the narrative more.
This break-up scene is from the song from Chris brown and Justin Bieber "next to you" it features the dad of the girl telling her never to see Justin Bieber again. it involves Chris Brown waking up to the girl not being in his bed etc. and him panicking with a car blowing up, this creates more drama as the audience believe that the girl is dead. This would be a good narrative to use as it allows the audience to be more involved with the narrative,however we would have to think of different ways to create more drama as we don't have the equipment and money to allow props to be blown up.
