I have decided to use the Marilyn Manson song, Evidence, for my music video. This is one of his lesser known tracks from his album 'Eat Me, Drink Me' which many fans saw as too mainstream and emotional. It followed his break-ups with actress Evan Rachel Wood and burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese. Despite the album's lack of commercial and critical success, the song Evidence has a chilling rhythm throughout and details his attempts to wipe away the evidence of his relationship. I have chosen it mostly for its creepy essence, but also for the theme. I've decided to take the idea of cleaning away any evidence of his past relationship as physically removing the woman involved in his mind. I will have her walking through a dreamlike wooded area at dusk when an unknown creature begins to hunt her. This horror-like theme works with my metal genre very well and keeps with some of the context of the song.
