I didn't really have a direction in mind before diving into mine, and I ended up being surprised by where it went!
"Better Things" was kind of the first song I could pull from my music library that gave me a nice 60-second chunk of lyrics to work with; obviously starting on "here's wishing you the bluest skies" meant I HAD to open with the colorization, and staying in color until the very last clip meant that dropping into the b/w rewind effect was like extra jarring. Then I made a decision about the POV on that song, and... I just stopped dead in this laundromat and realized I think I accidentally picked up and used something REALLY CLEVER from the opening credits of ep 6, which I absolutely cannot go into without megaspoilers.
I wasn't expecting it to be so much about the twins, but once I'd decided to use mostly the color eps + Agnes onscreen for every "I" in the lyrics + how could I not have the shot I did for "hoping all the verses rhyme," the pechakucha format put some REALLY interesting constraints on the clips I could use.
"People Are Strange" was the second version I did, but I decided to put it first because I really liked seeing the clip sequence that looked disjointed and eerie with that music turn into something fast and upbeat and artificial with the song it was vidded to. I don't know if that came across as much as I wanted, but I like it.
