"Yellow" video by Coldplay

[PringlesQueen]

Please could somebody explain how they shot and produced this video?
It would help to settle an argument.

Thx

what exactly do you mean? i know that the other guys were meant to be in it but they were ill so it just ended up being Chris Martin walking along the beach on his own. Its hardly a rocket science formula on this one, are you sure you dont mean the scientist.

I know what you mean squsalminney, it appears to be in slow motion yet Chris Martin's lips are in sync with the music.
I'm just guessing but they may have recorded it with the song sped up twice as fast and recorded him walking and singing and then played it back at half speed which would give the impression of everything being in slow motion but the words and song running at the correct tempo, not sure though!

also turning from night to day which i guess might be filters.a simple yet puzzling video !
