In Human by Ellie Goulding, as she sings "Human I wonder why you’re a better make than I could ever build or create", near the beginning. We could bury a member of the group in the sand to use as a cast of a man that Ellie Goulding has created as such. When she sings "you know not love or hate". We could then break it. However that is more time consuming then to use stop motion and draw a man who is nearly "perfect" and tearing it up. 

In the middle of the song, Ellie Goulding sings "Human I'm trying to come clean". I was thinking this might be a great time for our shot on our story board of the actress walking into the sea. This is so the actress walks into the sea she'll become clean, washing her old self away and then sings "I will be a better me".

Near the end of the song, Ellie Goulding sings "the sound of my heart breaking". We could use stop motion and draw a heart. Then draw a crack in the middle. After draw it breaking in half till there is only one side left, or broken into loads of tiny pieces. This is also quite time consuming as getting it perfect would be crucial if we wanted it smooth. However as it's 'a heart breaking' we can afford to make it jerky on purpose.

On the left is a simple picture of a heart in the sand. On the right shows a simple heart that is near by the sea. This means we can either do the stop motion and drawing it so it becomes broken, or we could just do stop motion of it washing away. This means we can either make it smooth or jerky if we wanted to.

On the left is a simple heart, but instead of drawing a heart we could actually make one out of stones. Then if we did make it out of stones we could break the heart by moving the stone outline apart and make it jerky.

Also whilst drawing the heart and breaking it. We could draw sound marks in the sand as she sings "the sound of my heart is breaking". We could change the sound marks each time we take a picture, so when it comes to give the illusion of sound coming out as if the heart were speakers booming out music.
