Kevin Morby- I've been to the mountain

-It's got a narrative- but it is more of a thought beat as it makes you think more about the song than the artist.

- It's Selling the artists as alternative/Indie you don't see him and focus more on the song than the image 

-Visuals match the lyrics in an opaque manner (unclear) 

- Handheld camera creates verisimilitude as we almost feel like we are in the hospital. The use of colours adds to this effect and make the hospital almost dream-like

- The grainy effect connotes death/miserable feel of the visuals despite the juxtaposition between the happiness of the dance routine/almost psychotic nature of the dancer and the colour palette of the visuals. This adds to the theme of the visuals. 

-There are intersexual reference points to more obscure arty films (Tarantino, David Lynch)
