Summary of narrative 500 words.
The video tells a story that is not fully explained and kind of obscure using the enigma code (Barthes) to allow audiences to develop there own interpretation and understanding of the medium performed. However the general themes throughout the video suggest the theme of time moving too fast and the idea that we, as a species, take it for granted. The Narrative is the main focus of the video, as we follow the protagonist throughout three different time periods. The music video will represent the main male characters youth through flash backs during his time reminiscing on his past life. However, there will be occasional shots within a montage that will show many locations and scenes of the actors outside of there acting role as well as of the main characters old family photos, in comparison to present day, and create a sense of nostalgia. The specific memories that will be shown will details his late teenage years and early adult life. It can be interpreted that perhaps the performer is singing on behalf of the main male character as the lyrics are interconnect to the plot of the visuals, below, as evident of; "Time really moves fast, fast, fast, fast,". At the end of the video we then see the main protagonist getting ready for work with a smile on his face possibly being content with how his life has turned out despite feeling to have taking it for granted after audiences had witness what he went throughout his past. The subtle nature of the narrative means that a wide variety of people can relate to it and interpret it in their own way. The ending shot is of him driving into the distance with a luxury car and his wife, possibly being the reason he is content with how his life has turned out to be, ending the video on a high note as the lyrics state "What happens next? A story to be continued, yeah"
Song lyrics
Well, I’ve been livin’ fast, fast, fast, fast
Feelin’ really bad, bad, bad, bad
Time really moves fast, fast, fast, fast
But hurry up, ain’t getting your bag, bag, bag, bag

My hand on my trigger, I’m gon’ die with respect, yeah
F-----’ with my money, it get down like that, yeah
I took too many pills, countin’ up the bills, uh
Molly in my cup, I can’t tell you how I feel
Uh-uh, last call
Uh-uh, it’s gnarly
