We wanted there to be a sense of time passing throughout the music video, from when her boyfriend left to go travelling in the summer To cutting to when she is thinking about him leaving in autumn. To her walking around a shopping centre in a winter fur coat suggesting that time has passed from when she was walking through the forest in autumn, to winter. To when she is at park at the end and the sun is out, suggesting the change in seasons and it becoming spring. We wanted this story-line of time passing to run throughout the music video, so the viewers could obtain a deeper meaning of Freya Ridings lyrics. We hope this enables the audience to obtain how heartbroken she is and the feeling of sadness and loss the song portrays not being a momentary thing, emphasising the love she had for her boyfriend that has left.

When editing our music video, we decided to greyscale our footage to make it have washed out, ghostly, lonely effects in order to emphasis the characters sadness we are trying to portray. We also added a red effect for the overlays at the start of the music video to give the audience a vibrant colour to draw their attention in further. It also combined the colour scheme when Lauren is in dancing and the red overlay presents itself, to the next scene where the colour scheme in the forest is reds and oranges. Not only doe this combine the scenes but it also emphaises the autumnal season, and the sense of time passing.
