Some interesting Facts about Adele's New Video

[Serendipity 7,821]

1. It took only 12 takes to film the entire video. "After we had a few that we were really happy with, then we started to play with the emotions, the prevailing emotion in the take, and also a different reading," he explained. "As we went along, we really built it together in terms of, we got it this covered this way. Let's cover it this way on a different path."

2. It wasn't choreographed, but Adele had to remember what she did in the previous take. "There were certain suggestions of what would look good when repeated many times over. After a couple takes, once everybody was a little bit looser in term of us on the camera side, she just really let go," Daughters shared. "Towards the end, we were doing takes that were more about the movement and less about the emotional performance."

3. Adele chose the dress! No costume designer or stylists needed.

4. Daughters was suffering from a migraine when they had to film, but it didn't affect too many decisions. "It was an unusual curveball. I mention it just because I remember having a migraine and kind of sitting in the dark and they're bringing photos over: 'This is her first choice, and this is her second choice, and this is her third choice…' I was like, this first choice, that looks great," he recalled. "That was the only bit of directorial decision-making that was required during the migraine."

5. Editing was minimal. "But in a way, as you watch the video many times, you start to make your own edits because you focus on different layers of her performance," he noted.

Here's another fact, the video (along with the editing) probably took like one hour to wrap up.

I know right, that's why most that praised this also love the TEoG vid.

Oh wait.

It's really not boring. Maybe if you're an ADD kid who requires flashy colors and fast movement, you can't keep your focus on this beautiful video.

And for some reason this one looks inferior and on a budget.  Directors always talent.

Did they include how it was migrating inducing 

EDIT: Number 4 did what a mess

[Didymus 34,380]

I like the video but it just shouldn't have been released the way it was. That video doesn't deserve any hype whatsoever.

She didn't even put out a video for her Billboard #1 Set Fire To The Rain. Y'all are lucky to get anything.

Those facts don't really add anything to my appreciation of the music video  Like they don't change my (negative) thoughts on it or anything
