College shots

Initially, we wanted shots of the main protagonists around college to add another dimension to the narrative. We wanted to create a reason for the the main boy to be angry and pining after the main girl. However, after careful consideration, we decided the quality of the shots did not match that of the Haigh Hall shots. They made the project appear unprofessional as opposed to a real music video. Therefore, we decided not to use them and to alter the narrative so that it would be revealed at the end of the video that the main girl would be dead. Therefore, we had to travel to a local graveyard and obtain shots of the main boy looking at the girl's grave so that the audience would finally understand why the boy has been so angry and upset, and why he was painting a picture of her. We felt this narrative aspect worked better because it increased the enigma around the girl's character and the boy's actions up until the final few shots, when her death is revealed.
