There was a possible Andromeda floating about but it's not clear yet if she is The Andromeda for the video or is interested for other reasons.
The latest evolution for "Andromeda Weeps" is kind of a relief as the only way I saw to resolve the story was to burn Jerusalem. There was a mighty resistance but it was a good discussion and the result was burning Jerusalem is not reasonable when the world did not burn but rather danced with the idea.
There must still be a consequence for this potentially-catastrophic mistake with the missiles but it's not necessary to burn the center of Western religion to make that consequence. Therefore we will learn the errant missile was targeted for Jerusalem, as it would be in a real war, but the missile is aborted and does not hit the target. Unfortunately, it hits a ship when it comes down and there are casualties.
The revised thinking is also to camp it out and go all-out Rocky Horror with it.
Note: The Raven was most insistent Jerusalem must not burn and for the right reasons. Obviously we don't want to burn a holy place so what is the justification in the story. He did not see that justification and suggested how about the ship as the alternative.
That The Raven contributes doesn't change the notion of originality because a collective of like minds is fine with me. These kids are smart, talented, and beautiful so, sure, let's collaborate and see what comes. It isn't about being mine but about being original.
(Ed: why not hook up with kids at a uni film school?)
Because we have the people, we only need the camera. They can't supply the actors anyway. I will send a camera and it won't be as good as the film school can use but it will yield an authentically raw result. This is what we have and we're going with it.
Here's the latest schematic:
Scene 1 - introduce the Young Beautiful People, Jason and Andromeda, who are mad in love
(first verse)
Scene 2 - the alert to launch the missiles
(first chorus)
Scene 3 - Andromeda implores Jason not to launch the retaliatory missiles.
(second verse)
Scene 4 - Jason announces he will not launch
(second chorus)
Scene 5 - breaks off to Phrase 2 for the Trips part. Mad love in a surreal, much less structured way.
Scene 6 - back to Phrase 1 to discover people suddenly look happy but why
(third verse)
Scene 7 - the order to stand down, it was all a false alarm - second part of chorus is notification about Jerusalem
(third chorus)
Scene 8 - the story of the nuke headed for Jerusalem and how the hit is avoided but there are casualties when it hits a ship coming down.
(fourth verse)
Scene 9 - something ironic from the military alert - ever ready to serve or some such

Scene 10 - break off to Phrase 2 again and deliberately use the same music to recall the mad love of Jason and Andromeda but this time it's Colonel Kurtz talking about the horror, the horror, the people on the ship died in a war which didn't happen, the horror, the horror.
Note: I do believe if The Raven plays Colonel Kurtz, he could fly this bit around the Moon. If I were choosing for me, I'd go with this one because the lovey guy is kind of a stiff, really.
Whether anything follows other than the outro depends on the Knoxville Unit and how tricked they want to get. My preference is to use improv the most for the Trips parts with the first Mad in Love Trips and and the Colonel Kurtz trips while the primary structure of the song remains as in the schematic.
Scene 11 - the outro is a repeat of the verse / chorus on soft electric guitar without drums to get reflective and then fade for a soft landing.
Note: this is not the storyboard since that's the product of this. The schematic will break out into image ideas and then we shoot.
(Ed: you leave out a few things in-between coming up with image ideas and shooting!)
Just a few, yes (larfs).
