I noticed that in the introduction to the music track, there was an extract from the tv series introduction 'Twilight Zone' (This was found with a little research) and after finding and watching a few episodes of this, it became much clearer to come up with a concept.


 The series consisted of unrelated episodes depicting paranormal, futuristic, dystopian, or simply disturbing events; each show typically featured a surprising plot twist and usually ended with some sort of message. Throughout the music video, I wanted references to the twilight zone, especially in the introduction to the song. After watching this intro:

Next I decided to look at the lyrics and break them down; giving me more of an idea of how I want my video to be. after breaking down and analysing the lyrics, I managed to construct every shot and scene I would use in my music video. These were my results:
