MAIN VIDEO


OLDER BY SASHA ALEX SLOAN 


MAIN VIDEO 

I wanted my main video to be linked with the preliminaries so it would look like one story / or parts of someones life , I kept my character (not actor ) and my color scheme the same through out the preliminaries and main music video . My preliminaries build up to the main video almost acting like trailers or small episodes. 

ABOUT THE SONG  

The song "Older" by Sasha is song that delves into the complexities of growing up and nostalgia. the lyrics show the desire of not growing up and to keep enjoying the simplicities and innocence of the youth. While accepting that time keeps moving and growing up and facing the harsh realities of life is inevitable. the song reminds you of your childhood memories happy and sad. The songs lyrics and beautiful melody capture the bitter sweet feeling of nostalgia, encouraging listeners to accept the fleeting nature of youth and to enjoy it. 

MY INTERPRETATION

I think the song is about growing up in a broken home. in a home where the girl feels neglected she feel like she forced to face the harsh realities of the world way to young, she trying to escape the misery she's in , she trying to ignore her problems so she doesn't need to grow up. she refuses to accept her reality but as she gets older to heal her inner child she starts to forgive the people that caused her pain and she accepts her reality. and accepts the fact that humans aren't perfect and make mistakes.

MY VISION 

I wanted to show both the past and present self in the music video. I envisioned a very dark and warm look for the music video where the older version is to show mystery and maturity. and for the younger version I wanted more light to show hope and innocence. I wanted the music video to show clearly what the child character wanted and desired but couldn't get (I showed it through the drawings the child character made ). 

VIDEO

The video turned out exactly how I envisioned it . I poured my heart and soul into this music video and I hope my audience enjoys it as much as I enjoyed making it

POSTER

I wanted the poster to be very simple and light hearted so I decided to use a picture taken in the park (ending scene) the picture perfectly shows "getting older" as the older version is completely their but the younger version is translucent / fading like a memory.
