Research: Harry Houdini




Whilst looking at our lyrics, we noticed the constant use of the name Houdini, since we didn't know who he was, I decided to do some research about him, and found out that he was a famous stage magician and an illusionist, who was most known for his escape facts. When learning that he was well known for that,and the fact that his escape acts are what brought him fame and wealth,and realising that our ideas for our music video were linked to escapism I felt that we could try and incorporate a symbolic shot that tributes to him.
After looking at some images of Houdini on the internet, I found a lot of them were photos of him handcuffed and chained, and therefore I feel that we could incorporate a shot of someone trying to break our of handcuffs.
I believe that we can use 'The handcuff king' as a symbol to the idea of escapism within our video.
