The sound has completely been removed from all of the clips, due to the fact that the purpose of this video is to simply showcase the raw footage collected before being cut or edited. Also no sound from any of the clips will be featured within my music video anyway, due to the fact that the song will be being played simultaneously to the sequence of video.
