Alesso ft. Sirena - Sweet Escape
Well, it's been a while. Anyway, I actually started working on this cover last May along with Runaway. It was my second (easier) option if ever I really couldn't finish the other. Fortunately, after quite some time, I did finish it. So I then proceeded working on Sweet Escape by Alesso. I found the song on my Soundcloud feed and I decided to queue it on my list since I liked the melody.
Just days away from the semester's opening, I managed to shoot all the rhythm clips but I was aware that I was already running out of time. I knew I couldn't finish it as I hoped.
After two stressful and exhausting months of college, we were given a one week break. I went home and took the opportunity to continue my unfinished project. It was good to be home because those two months were tough and terrible. As I departed the city, I wanted to leave all my worries as well. I guess I really needed that "Sweet Escape" out of my college miseries.
Okay, talking about the shooting and editing. It wasn't as easy as I thought it would be especially for the chorus part where I had to shoot the lead melody by short clips because it was too fast to play and I couldn't shoot in one take. The structure isn't really the same as the previous songs; but it isn't as hard because I just had to repeat the verse and chorus twice. It's still quite exhausting but I was fulfilled in taking a new challenge.
Anyway, there's not really much activity on this video but it's memorable for me because of how the title of this song described what I felt in the process of making it.
