As well as making a customary animatic video for our music video that was made up of drawings by hand, I also made an animatic using different cut up clips from other music videos, films etc. that I had found to use as reference/inspiration for my own shots and to figure out camera movements and most importantly i used it to see how the actors in the other professional videos were behaving in order to learn how to properly direct the actors as having perfect and believable acting was one of my main goals.  I used the application Splice to create this on my phone, iphone 11 by Apple. I referenced to this animatic a lot on the actual set when I was stressed and felt like I was missing something; Here is the other animatic we created for our music video:  

We received a very positive response from our audience, there are around 170 comments and around 260 likes and about 2.3k views on our video. Everyone loved the video and it was an absolute heartwarming response. Here are some of the comments we received:  Many people also shared our video on their personal stories without us having asked them to: We also got many direct messages from people applauding the music video:

As we already released a poster and a slight teaser, our audience was excited for the final reveal. We finally released our music video and asked everyone to like, share and comment. Both my partner and myself were quite emotional after releasing our labour of love and overwhelmed by the response we were receiving. I dedicated a post on my personal account about how hard I had worked on this and thanked those that helped me:

S We had our very first screening in our classroom, and the response my fellow classmates gave was very rewarding, putting it into words, they were super excited and exhilarated and we had the honor of everyones applause after they saw our video and also in between which made us super happy and satisfied .

  This is the first rough cut we rendered to see how the final thing might look like and to get familiar with what the export settings would output. Here is the link to view the rough cut :  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1uNiNwaxo396NZiQzYYw1L7BQHTQWjaFG/view?usp=sharing
