    paper BLACK RAIN

    paper Animated Music Video - FADED

    Drawing inspiration from the hauntingly beautiful melodies and introspective lyrics of “Faded,” the animation takes viewers on a somewhat spiritual journey akin to the story of Moses, his audience with God and the burning of the bush. With artful storytelling and a dreamlike atmosphere, the video amplifies the song’s emotional impact.
