Inspiration

Taylor Swift - Ours
For the scenes on the sofa and in the garden we took inspiration from Taylor Swift - Ours, which shows a flashback in a similar nature. The footage is sweet and shows how loved up the couple are, which we thought would be a good thing to include and re-enforced the romance between the Ben and Tuesday.


Taylor Swift - Back to December
When the lyrics 'fighting with him' come on, I included a scene of Ben walking away from Tuesday in the woods. For this shot I took inspiration from Taylor Swift - Back to December. In which her love interest is walking around a lone. This signifies their breakup and how things have gone downhill.




Rudimental - feel the love
For the horse scenes we didn't take inspiration from any other videos as it the idea came naturally, but after looking into videos with horses included, Rudimental - feel the love stood out. This was because the editing is fast faced like our video and the horses take up a lot of the video.
Another song that reminded me of how horses can effect the overall look and feel of the video was, Nick Mulvey - Cucurucu . Even though it's set in a remote location and on a beach which is nothing like ours, the shots are stunning and make the video fit together. There is also a clear connection between the two people and two horses, which is like much like the feeling we want to show in our video.




We wanted the overall feel of our video to be almost like its for private viewing, and that it's shown through Tuesdays eyes. The romantic feel needed to be eminent but not take over the fact that it is also showing the breakdown of their relationship. The personal feel we were aiming for was much like that of  John Legend - All of Me  where himself and his wife were filming their love for each other. As the audience watching the video, you almost feel uncomfortable watching it because of the romantic the video is.
The sadness of their situation is much like that shown in The Script - Breakeven where he sings about the mess he's in after a breakup. This is what we wanted to portray nearer the end of the song, as the first bits are when they are together.




Even though our video is individual in its own right. Bits of it hint at other songs song that have been very successful, whether they are in the Pop genre or not.
