She is looking down and not making eye contact showing she's venerable • Dark scenes, and low key lighting making it mysterious • Baggy clothes, not sexualized
Eye contact before the chorus shows the artist gaining confidence • Lip gloss on her lip draws attention there and shows her femininity • Filmed at a high angle to show her innocence
The blue hue in the lighting shows her coldness and independence ass she in the car alone. • She is wearing dark clothing drawing the attention to her face instead on her outfit
Full body is shown, more open and free • Wearing a yellow jumper which connotes happiness • Very relaxed, sitting on the floor and hasn’t got shoes on
Pink LED lights show femininity • A handheld shot has been used while she leans on the wall, shows she dependent of something or someone • Filmed at a low angle to show her gain in power
In this scene there is a slow zoom toward Ella to give a clearer idea of her expressions
The fog gives off a mysterious effect • Can’t see the artist clearly which connotes that she’s confused
Smiling at her phone connotes she’s happy about the notification • Open stance shows her openness to the situation • Slightly brighter lighting then before shows her optimism
Fence could show she’s got walls up or has a tough exterior • wearing blue which could also connote that she being cold
Overall messages • She ends up showing her development as an independent women as the song talks about a male • Is not very sexualized • Dark colours shows she was maybe going through a rough time with this boy • Mysterious character as there is a key theme of fog throughout the whole thing • This appeals to her audience as people can relate to her feelings and message
