This is the script i wrote for the video clip for the song "Heavy" by Lauri.
Before starting to read i suggest to launch a song and try to imagine how it could look like with the video described bellow. You can find song here (https://youtu.be/y6NGk0y2u5w)
Bold text are the song lyrics, and whatever comes after - is description of what is happening on screen during this part of the song.

During the intro sequence, frames quickly change, showing astronauts preparing for takeoff, a flying rocket, people in spacesuits, setting a flag on the surface of the moon, and stretching out their hand to the bottomless starry sky around them. The camera shows the joyful face of one of the astronauts, who is awarded the order at the ceremony hosted after they returned, and the image changes smoothly, astronaut’s face grow older and older, until everything remains the same - only the astronaut is already an old man, and around him at the ceremony are children and grandchildren, as well as the new generation of astronauts, who will replace them.
They built you a cage of diamonds and gold
most beautiful place for you to grow old
The old man returns to the luxury mansion, in the lobby of which stands a model of a rocket. He goes into his room, which is completely filled with various kinds of souvenirs; medals and photographs hang on the walls - him and his team in those days when they were young.
They brought you the moon and served you the lie
His gaze focuses on a photograph in which they all together hold a flag on the surface of the moon, and then he looks at the plastic model of the moon next to it.
and all that you wanted was freedom to fly
He goes to the backyard, his gaze is fixed on the night sky, his hand reaches out to the stars....
It's heavy
but you are not the only one
who's tired of giving
afraid of the oblivion
The old man flips through a photo album, and when he looks at old photos, he is absorbed by images from the distant past - in them he sees himself and his friends, smiling and laughing on board the ship, looking at the stars together and arguing about something ...
Could it be that your curse is a bliss?
But the crown on your head never felt this heavy
The vision passes, and the old man sees a child running through the garden outside the window - he plays with a small rocket and the toy astronaut.
Harness your rage, take a leap of faith
to claim back your soul before it's too late
The old man calls and one of his friends picks up the phone, sitting surrounded by the rest of the team, who is also as old as he is. The subtitles say "Ship is going to be scrapped tomorrow. It’s now or never ".
The old man sits down and writes something on a small piece of paper ...
Show them no fear, sing them goodbye
Leave all but your heart and you're free to fly
The old man looks into the room of the child, kisses him while he sleeps, then looks into the room of child’s parents (his children), and leaves a letter that he wrote on the table. He goes outside, where car is waiting for him, sits in the back seat of the car, and closes his eyes ...
It's heavy
but you are not the only one
who's tired of giving
afraid of the oblivion
And he opens them already in the cockpit of the rocket, pressing the various buttons around, adjusting the instruments. His team was scurrying around, everyone is busy with something, and a young guy sitting in the control room speaking to them about something on the radio. Everyone looks nervous, but happy.
Could it be that your curse is a bliss?
The old man looks at the photograph of his family standing on the dashboard ...
But the weight of the world never felt this… heavy.
And his finger freezes over the start button ... Everyone in his team are looking at him, various emotions spark on their faces.
Take the evident leap of faith
People in security uniforms try to knock the control room doors, the guy sitting there screams something into the microphone
Don't you be afraid
The door crashes, security storms the building (all that happens in slow motion), while old man’s finger is right above the button, waiting for his choice
It's heavy
And he presses the button.
but you are not the only one
who's tired of giving
afraid of the oblivion
The engines turn on, the flame bursts from under the rocket, while security are swarming the control room, they put handcuffs on a guy who were helping the old astronauts, one of the men in uniform shouts something into the microphone, but the rocket is already starting to take off.
Could it be that your curse is a bliss?
But the cross that you bear never felt this heavy
The old man pressed into a chair from overload, his face frowns in pain, he looks around and sees his team, and grabs hold of the arm of the chair more tightly. A rocket leaves the Earth’s atmosphere.
You are not the only one
who's tired of living
afraid of the oblivion
A rocket rushes through endless space, passing the moon and flying farther and farther away from the Earth, and the old people aboard stand near the illuminator, merged with ghostly echo of them in the past, looking outside, enchanted by the beauty of stars reflected in their eyes, talk about something and smile.
Cause the crown on your head, the smile that you wear
the cross that you bear never felt this heavy
And on Earth at this time, his children, together with the police, read the letter that he left them, and through tears of sadness, mixed with joy, look at the very photo where he is pictured young, together with his team, while and the rocket continues to fly away farther and farther, disappearing into the depths of space.
The crown on your head never felt this
The old man’s gaze falls on the Earth for the last time – planet is becoming smaller and smaller, and at the same moment a child, his grandson, enters the garden, holding a toy rocket in his hands.
Heavy
The boy looks at the starry sky. Stars reflect in his eyes. He stretches his arm towards them…
