Narrative / performance videos
Use of GoPro, time lapse
Interesting use of colour grading to differentiate performance and narrative. Slo mo and panning shots at the beginning link two lines of action. More intense close ups and higher cutting rate towards the end show the change in mood.
Boy meets girl. Boy leads girl astray. Framing of couple to show relationship is interesting as is use of location.
