TheFakeGos Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 "Old Money" has been haunting me since the first listen. And the more I listened, the more I was playing flims in my head. Finally, I realized that Old Money and Gatsby are made for each other. I combed through the entired film Wednesday and I think the video really captures the feelings I get. Please let me know what you think! 7 Quote
HEARTCORE Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 that was so good oh my! it seemed like an actual music video jfc!!!! 0 Quote
lauradelxx Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Ever since I heard the title I thought of great gatsby bc that's an adjective they use for the people that have "classic" money aka old money and not new money. She also references y&b in the bad of my head I thought maybe she was supposed to use this song instead of young and beautiful for the soundtrack but kept it for herself. I love it so much my favorite off the album. 2 Quote god knows I tried
TheFakeGos Posted June 20, 2014 Author Posted June 20, 2014 @@lauradelxx YES, in Old Money there are very similar lyrics: "young and pretty" as wells as "will you still love me my when I shine, from words but not from beauty." I feel like this one was originally for the film! 1 Quote

Atom Heart Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Fantastic, I always thought of these scenes when hearing Old Money. The only thing missing is when Daisy got her pearls ripped off, that would've tied it together more. 0 Quote

Rebel Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 I wanted to make something like this! So glad I wasn't the only one who thought the song fit The Great Gatsby so perfectly. Loved it + good job + your blog is very entertaining 0 Quote
Creyk Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 I loved the Tom/Myrtile parts in the first half of the video, those were really nicely edited. Also when the lyrics go..."If you call I come" and there was the shot of Daisy watching the oldschool telephone, I felt that was a really nice touch I personally think it would have been better in color, but it did give a moody vibe to the pictures this way. 0 Quote

TheFakeGos Posted June 21, 2014 Author Posted June 21, 2014 I really didn't want to just make it about Jay and Daisy, but the entire web and the consequences. Thank you! I'm partial to the first "girl you used to call" that has Tom screaming. I'm glad that the little details are appreciated, it starts to feel like it's all in your head when you're editing! As far as the color goes, I wanted to remove it a bit from the film was and force attention to the faces.

Plus, Isla Fischer is so pretty it was good to see her in the video Since I used to do things like these I notice the details a bit more easily, It's like a treasure hunt for beauty so to speak ^^ 0 Quote
