Auburn Way Street, 'The Scientist' Music Video Production Office, Elffire City.

6:03 PM.

The room was chaotic.

Everyone was running against the time to finish the preparations for the scene they would shoot at the White Willow Plaza later.

Helena and Ishii were seated by the side already dressed in the clothes that Niwa and Kanna chose for the scene.

She was wearing blue jeans, white boots, a white stylish sweater, and a beige scarf.

Ishii was wearing black jeans, blue sneakers, a white shirt, and a beige jacket.

The two of them were being taken care of by Kate who was doing her makeup magic on them.

She had to do their face makeup and hairstyle.

Kate had a focused face as she worked on the two actors.

She knew that her job would be crucial for the video, so she did not be careless as she did their makeup.

But even though it was a difficult task, Kate was thrilled with it.

This way she could show her capabilities as a Makeup Artist!

And with the material that Ayia sent, she could do that without any problems.

While Kate was working on that, Niwa was working on some props they would use in the scene.

As the Art Director of the production, she was very exigent with all it was presented on screen.Â

For example, some papers would be filmed on the scene, and Niwa's job was to produce these things perfectly.

The pink-haired lady was another one racing against time to finish everything before they left for the plaza.

She was lucky that she had Arabella to help her finish these things or Niwa was sure that she would not be able to take care of finishing these props alone before the time of the shooting.

Arthur, on another hand, was working on the planning of the scene with Obara and Nomura.

They had to discuss how they would shoot, where, the sequence, the direction, the focus, and so on.

It was an extensive job that they had been doing for the whole afternoon, and they only finished now.

"So, it's decided. We will take some shots of the white willow first." Arthur said finally in a tired voice.

Nomura and Obara just nodded to show their approval.

It was to be expected, they had been working since early morning.

But even though they were tired, the light on their eyes shone brightly with excitement.

They were eager to start shooting the scene.

"Guys, we will leave in 30 minutes or we will lose the optimal time to shoot the scene. So, hurry up!" Kanna exclaimed loudly to attract their attention.

Kanna was responsible for coordinating and making a shooting schedule, so she knew that they would have to leave soon if they wanted to shoot the scene that night.

All the crew members turned their heads from what they were doing to look at Kanna when they heard her words.

Everyone had an anxious face when they heard that.

They could not help it, this video meant too much to each one of them.

But their eyes shone with determination to give all their effort to produce the best work possible.

It was at that moment that the door of the office opened and two beautiful girls entered the room.

Ayia and Shizuka looked at the crew with curious eyes.

They had the day off from the restaurant, so when they heard that Arthur and the crew would shoot the first scene that night, the two girls became curious about it.

They have never seen the shooting of a film before, so Ayia promptly dragged her sister to watch the scene.

​ "Hey, guys! We came here to watch the scene if you guys don't mind." Ayia said with a smile.

Shizuka just nodded to show that she agreed with Ayia.

"Hey, cousin! Of course, we don't mind!" Arthur smiled as he saw his two cousins entering the room.

"Ayia-san!"

"Shizuka-san!"

"We will be honored, Ayia-san!"

The rest of the crew greeted Ayia and Shizuka.

"So, the things delivered are in good standards?" Ayia asked Kanna as she sat down.

For the afternoon, she received lots of orders of clothes and makeup from Kanna.

Kanna even asked that some items be delivered as soon as possible because they would shoot a scene that night.

And that's how Ayia found out they would shoot a scene that night.

Obviously, Ayia had no problems delivering the items quickly.

When the delivery man arrived carrying the items for the scene two hours after Kanna asked them to Ayia, everyone was shocked.

They could not believe Ayia's efficiency.

It was so fast!

They started admiring Ayia even more then.

But what they did know was that Ayia only had to forward the order to one of her employees for her to search and deliver the items to the crew.

The perks of a rich girl.

"They are amazing, Ayia-san!" Niwa exclaimed in admiration as she looked at the purple-haired girl.

Niwa had just finished doing the props of the scene, so she could relax a little.

"I'm glad!" Ayia replied with a smile as she scanned the room looking at the crew racing against the time to finish their work before they left for the White Willow Plaza.

When the golden-eyed girl found Helena and Ishii dressed in the clothes and with the special makeup that Kate applied, her golden eyes shone as if the sun was erupting in her sunny eyes.

Ayia was too excited when she saw them.

"Oh my god! They look so different!" Ayia exclaimed excitedly.

Shizuka was also surprised as she saw the looks of Helena and Ishii.

"Yeah, Kate is the most talented Makeup Artist I had ever worked with. So, it is no wonder for her to be capable to do that." Niwa commented with a proud smile as she observed her friend giving the finishing touches on the makeup of Helena and Ishii.

"I can see that!" Ayia admired Kate's work.

For the people confused about why Kate was vital to the music video and why Ayia was shocked when she saw Kate's work.

We need to explain the workings of the whole music video.

The original 'The Scientist' music video had Martin (Coldplay's vocalist) in reverse.

But because Theo did not want to use the original idea, Theo had to find a way to tell the story in reverse in a different way compared with the original.

The solution that Theo found was to use the story itself.

Time would be reversed.

The two main characters would meet each other when they were old, and as the story progressed the two characters would get younger.

So, the time would be reversed with the aging of the characters.

But the story would go on with a reversed time.

Theo thought that this was a brilliant idea.

He remembered and referenced Benjamin Button and time travel movies from his past life to write this script.

Even the time would be reversed too.

One of the first scenes would show the calendar in the year 2020, but one of the last scenes would show it was the year 2012.

Theo took some of the phrases of the lyrics literally with this script.

When the lyrics say:

[...I'm going back to the start...]

The first and last scenes had the same reference.

The first scene showed two older characters meeting each other in the year 2020 at the coffee shop.

And the last scene showed a younger male protagonist in the year 2012 at the same coffee shop.

This meant that he went back to the start, but she did go with him.

He would wait for her, but she would not show up.

And because of this concept, Kate was essential for the production.

She had to do the makeup for Helena and Ishii to make them look older than they were.

But this was not difficult for the talented girl.

She could not wait to see her work on the screen.
