Story Analysis 

0:02: We are shown a Bee collecting nectar, links to the song title “Hunnybee” but also may symbolises that everything in nature is connected 
0:16: A train come to into frame right, the comparison in size of the bee and train but sill have equal value of importance, nature can symbolize peace and synchronized order then disruptive train changes this balance. ( How humans disrupted the earth’s balance)
Journey 0:18- 0:45 I really enjoy how the window is centered in the frame and shows this ongoing journey with the girl on the left and how it flows like a train journey. 
Story building 2:49 cuts on to train wheels   2:53 zoom in on a still camera  2:58 showing a birds 3:16 highlight on Bag with “Kiwi” written on the badge. Mise en scène is used to help tell the story by giving little details that help to tell a story. 
Climax 3:24 the bolt in the wheels of the train seems loose 3:28 suitcase looks like it’s going to fall.  3:30 tree branch about to fall on train 3:39 fire extinguisher hasn’t been checked. 3:44 reveals the falling suitcase is heavy. These fast transition build up suspension and anticipating that something bad is going to happen immediately 
Ending 3:57 later reveals all of this presented panic, was nothing to worry about and that the train goes through the tunnel and continues its journey. The tree branch falls missing the train. 
The video that accompanies this single effortlessly creates a story by showing a journey through different elements. Captures small details that make an impact on the overarching plotline. As well as being visually stunning, reference 90 retro Japanese video games. This is why this is an important reference for my final project
