Also I'm not that big of a fan of CGI in 'nature' environments, I think it would've been much prettier overall had the CGI been kept to a minimum
Again this is not a bad video, not at all, but to me it wasn't going anywhere until the obvious ending (which was so obvious they really didn't need to spell it out after that)

hmmmm a fair point tbh it could have been better to keep the scene switches as a bit less but in my vision of the video there are multiple taylor's going through their own struggles since its all a metaphor and takes place in her mind notice how the forest materializes and dematerializes , once she conquered her demons the vines that ensnared her start coming off her body, when she jumps in the ocean after she is lying on ground in a dry earth cracked desert, the video plays with those extremes a lot like when she's in the forest and reaches for the tree for security but the moment she touches it the environment changes to snow and the hand she reached out is now frozen (she seems shocked by this) she tries to run but is frozen as the avalanche encloses on her, she loses in this scenario but because its not real its metaphorical she doesn't die, she just starts over somewhere else. the mud scene refers to her line form the clean tour speech
'i now know going through pain makes you stronger , walking through a lot of rainstorms makes you clean"
the wolves represent the media/ gp i think changing from they were tearing her apart during Red to when she becomes thier leader ilke during the 1989 debut
this was a cluster**** so sorry if it doesn't make sense all together but hopefully the message got across
