Changes and Development to my video

I have made a number of changes while making my video from my plan which I would like to document

-I originally wanted the actress to be singing in one-take with the camera while there is a story in the background. I decided that the narrative isn't always clear as a result of this, and sometimes it might work better to cut between her performance and a narrative. Although I am disappointed I couldn't achieve the full effect I originally wanted, I still think the new vision will work.
-I felt that the narrative wasn't clear enough with the original footage I took of somebody walking around upset like in my storyboard. Therefore I am planning on implementing clips that are stronger, such as perhaps a graveyard or clips of wedding photos
-I also decided to film some moving background shots to make the video more interesting to watch
-I filmed multiple old photos in order to add to the effect of nostalgia. I think this is very important to convey the song's meaning as it is about reflection and fairly sad.
-In my storyboard I also wanted to have a range of green screen backgrounds however I decided it would be more effective to have a simple black background throughout, especially due to intertextuality to other videos
