At the very beginning I like the idea of having the performer doing something before the song comes in for instance in this video the student is walking to the field (with diegetic sound) to where he will perform the song. I feel it gives it more of an introduction and gives the audience time to see where the artist is before the music is played. I also like how the settings change for each verse. At the start the student is in a field which intercuts into woods, then he gradually goes further into the woods. The lip syncing is very good and it fits within the song. I also like how he goes back to where he was in the beginning of the video for instance outside the woods on a path and the video also cuts back to him on the field.
This music video has been shot very well however some of it does seem improvised whih is evident towards the end and also at the start the transitions between shots do not seem as fluid as they could be. I feel some of the shots are too long for instance when he is singing in the tree the shot goes on for 14 seconds. Also there is one shot when he is near the tree and you can see cars in the background which sorts of ruins that particular shot. I feel it is a good music video because the shots are kept in time with the music.
