27. Final ideas and influence

For our music video we tried to keep it close to the original as possible, even using similar camera angles and story lines, the song was of course Gabrielle Aplin home. The reason why we tried to keep it as close to the original as possible it because we wanted the natural folk type look, this is basically the main reason behind why we chose not to use green screen because it would destroy the nature vide and evoke the correct emotions we wanted.
We really tried to relate to the lyrics of the song, the whole idea of her heart being where the home is at and her home is with him, so we made the video itself rather narrative. Her being in Hampstead heath showing the natural folk look having a rough time and then our flashbacks being a reminder of her at a happier time.
As you can see from the images they really show a raw folk type vibe with minimalist festures

One of out biggest influences would be Taylor Swift Back to December. The song itself differs to the actual genre of the original however the video itself really portrays that homely feel for being alone and it give you a focus on the artist by showing the minimalistic features.
The only part of our video which sticks out from all influences is the bath scene. However the reason we chose to use it is because we believe it to be really emotive and it shows a lonesome aspect of the artist singing by herself making it kinda personal.
