And now here is what weโve noticed in todayโs second rehearsal:
The performance starts with close camera shots of all the band members. The lead singer wears a large and green round hat and a white dress with a black belt. There are several camera angles, mostly close ups but also some from further away and both from front and from the back. There is a changing in atmosphere given by changes in lighting during the performance.
It starts off being dark and living-room feel-like, with some yellow bubbles floating in the background in the second half of the song, with increasing intensity. It then culminates with a bright orange sun rising from the bottom and it all ends with a close camera shot of the lead singer that slowly fades away.
