Space was an indie/alternative rock band hailing from Liverpool, England. They became a well-known mainstream band due to a number of popular hits including “Female of the Species” and “Neighbourhood”. The 4 piece band were all male, who were predominantly influenced by fellow English rock pioneers, The Who. In 1996, their debut album Spiders reached platinum success, especially with the music video of “Female of the Species” being shown regularly on MTV both in the UK and USA. Also, the song was used as theme song for popular 90’s TV show Cold Feet.
We all decided that we wanted to choose the song “Female of the Species” for a
number of reasons. Firstly, the melodic tone of the song gave as an idea of a satirical video, particularly as the song had very strong meanings within the lyrics. As well as this, the lyrics tell a story of a ‘deadly’ female who is dominant over the lead singer. We felt that we could incorporate this onto the screen and could develop a storyboard that would relate to it.
