Production Treatment

All Along the Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix

All Along the Watchtower is four minutes long.

The songs target audience would be people aged 15-24 because its genre is Rock and it has elements of heavier music in it, but also a lot of older music fans over 25 would enjoy it, especially those who were alive when this version was released (1968). For this reason the target audience would most likely be male but females may also like this song because of the artist's (Jimi Hendrix) persona and style.

The video is mainly performance but...the song is about a group of characters in a watchtower and echo lines in the "Book of Isaiah". Since this song is a Psychedelic interpretation of the original (by Bob Dylan) we would like to include Psychedelic effects in the video but not in an imitating manner, but more as an homage to the late 60s early 70s when Hendrix and the whole movement was at its height.
