To start writing the script for the video, I've watched the clip a ton of times and started writing what frames I've envisioned. Since I've shortened the song to about 2 minutes and a half, that's for how long I will plan the script. I decided to make a very rough list of shots I want to take, divided by seconds. (I did this in Romanian as its my first language and it was easier to put on paper everything I envisioned, however I will later write all of it in English) This is just to help me make an idea of what I want the video to be like, I don't plan to follow it in detail, but it will be helpful to have it with me while filming so I always know
