After deciding to make a music video for this song, a few weeks after we discovered that someone else had recently posted their own music video of Freya Ridings 'Lost Without You'. After watching theirs we related with some of their ideas, but also saw a few things that we thought we could perhaps interpret in to ours. The way in which they caption her isolation is what we were aspiring to do before we watched the music video, and most of the techniques they used we had alread incorporated and filmed, but one of the ways in whihc we had not thought, was when the female protagonist is clealry so distracted by her heartbreak that when crossing the road she does not realise a car coming.

Audience research for 'Lost Without You'

After we changed our song we had to see if this song would be liked. As this is not a well known song by a well known Artist like ________ by Sia.

The feedback we got was positive as poeple liked the song but also thought it was a good idea to make a music video for a song that doesnt have one yet as it means are ideas are not manipulated by the music video already made.
