The opening scene features diegetic sounds to introduce us into the narrative. The sound effects in this scene were sourced from a sound library and others were done through foley. ๐ง

In this scene, one of the characterโs makes a key decision which impacts the rest of the narrative. Her mind is made in between two tracks.
.
One of the challenges with the project was create atmospheric soundscape in a brief amount of time. Since the film is first and foremost a music video, the sound design was never to be overpowering or distracting from the music.
.
By using reverb with automated keyframes, the scene was given a haunting tone.

Swipe for two excerpts from the film
๐๐ฝ๐๐ฝ
Brief outline below ๐๐ฝ๐๐ฝ.
.
1 - this scene is where the filmโs non-linear narrative clicks into place. It was fun to use an ever rising Shepardโs tone as the base for the sound design.
โฌ๏ธโฌ๏ธโฌ๏ธโฌ๏ธโฌ๏ธ
.
One of the characters throws a bag in the ground, this goes on to become a key sound in the following sequence.๐ฅ
.
2 - Through out the video, thereโs been an analogue motif in place; tapes playing, signal dials, etc. In the penultimate sequence, the films non-linear physically returns to where the opening scene left off. ๐๐๐๐๐ฅ
.
A soundscape was created for the passing memories flashing by the screen. Apart from repeating some key sounds from the film in reverse, the impact sound from the previous excerpt was used to give rhythm to the sequence.๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ

The video intercuts between two timelines. They were differentiated using colour. A cold and blue palette was employed for the past, while a warm and darker one was there for the present. ๐ฅถ๐ฅต
.
The past scenes were filmed in my room. Those who know how much of a hoarder I am know how tough it was to clear my room. ๐คฏ๐คฏ๐คฏ

This particular location wasnโt the most visually appealing. We had to clear a lot of litter and cans from the ground.
.
However, @alexrileydp opted to backlight the characters through the trees to give the location a more mystical tone; making it appear bigger than it actually was. .

Lights include some lovely tubes by @kinoflolightingsystems .
