Inspiration for my music video #3

As a comment on my feedback was for me to watch "Someday" by Nicklebackas it features a similar meaning behind the song, so I have decided to watch this video and see if can inspire me to implement other ideas into my own video.



Similar to my idea, the video is about someone who has died but doesn't know it. In this case, the man (husband) has died and is trying to chase after his wife for the entirity of the video. However, the difference is that this video keeps dropping blatent hints to the audience that he is dead before the reveal at the end. It does this in several places such as the man steppping in milk and not leaving a footprint and also not having a reflection in a car mirror. The big reveal is done through the man disappearing (fading away) at the end of the video then cutting to a shot of anewspaper story saying that he has been killed.

Although these ideas work well, I would prefer to only have the big reveal at the end as I believe it will have greater effect on the audiene. This is as there would be no previous indecation that the character in my music video is dead.
