I really like the fast pace editing in this video. I like how the editing reflects the beats or instrumentals in the song. I also think the syncing of the musical instruments with the actual song is very good especially with the drum kit. I like the use of the colourful powder on the drumkit and the throwing of it onto the lead singer.
I think the narrative is quite stereotypical and very commonly used. I also think some of the acting isn't convincing for example when colourful clouds flood around the lead singer the actor looks bored out of his brain. I think more filters could have been used on the footage of the band playing the instruments to make it more convincing and to anchor the musical genre better.

I like how the editing reflects the beats or instrumentals in the song. I like the use of the GoPro reflecting someone's eyes. I also like the narrative of this video because it is not the stereotypical narrative you would expect to see in a music video. I think the acting achieves verisimilitude which is good. The syncing of the lips with the actual song is also very good. I think the lead actor (singer) reflects the real singer (Halsey) very much in terms of the fashion, hair and make up. The mise-en-scene works really well (with the masks, dark lighting, forest location, pink powder, firelighter etc...)
I don't like the use of the greenscreen in this video because it is very clear that a greenscreen is being used. Also, some of the footage is shaky for example on the singer lip syncing infront of a greenscreen and when the man steps out of the black car and puts in a password for a gate. I also don't like the footage in the bathroom near the end because it looks very amateur and bad quality.
