Performance/ Narrative Shots

The video below is a Coldplay video "The Scientist".
We really like the idea of the whole video being shot backwards. It has that sort of jolty and awkward feel to it and makes you feel uneasy. The video also mixes this idea with slow motion to make the effect even more obvious.
For this video the lead singer, Chris Martin, had to learn how to sing the song backwards so that when it was played backwards it would look like he was singing normally.
