This music video by Coldplay inspired our music video because…..

• The effect where Chris Martin appears in different positions when playing the drums works well, it makes it more interesting. He keeps appearing in different positions in the camera frame.

• I also like the scenery that the video is shot in. It adds to the overall video, that’s what inspired us to shoot in a park that had an older big building.

• I also like some of the more quirky things that feature in the video, such as when Chris puts the magnifying glass up to his mouth and when he is struggling to walk in the snow a the top of the mountain. When we came to shoot our video at Waterloo Park, we came up with the idea of doing similar strange things like playing a small guitar and Elliot stuffing a load of cake in his mouth.
