I wished the scenes where the girl crashes the board has more drama, the views could have used more close ups and movement instead of steady cams. Especially since the music was starting to build up on that part.
Also, the wall on the right side of the screen that's included in the scenes of that man was a bit distracting. it constantly reminds me that what i'm watching is from a camera situated right outside the door.
The last parts were the best parts imo with all those stopmotion, that might have taken a lot of time.
All in all great music and fitting video with lots of effort put into it. Congrats.

PS
I chuckled at the 'sun ray' effect.

the room shots were really hard to get because the house I live in is far from ideal for filming, and I didn't have a wide angle lens or anything like that, so I had to take what I could get.

Did you storyboard this or did you go with the flow and then just spend a few days slicing and dicing material?

All in all I thought it was really good. I'm not sure if I'm glad you didn't stylise the fuck out of it or not. There's part of you that dies every time you see something that's instagramesque but in the context of a music video it might be appropriate for more subtle lighting effects.
