The focus is of an animated girl with a sad expression, fitting the overall mood of the MV. In the process of designing the character, I drew her with her hood on to reinforce the sad persona.

To make the MV more engaging, the character is animated matching the meaning of the lyrics.

The section of the song that I chose has a very melancholy atmosphere and vibe.  In order to match this mood, I took photos at night to use as the background of the MV.

Lyric animation also accompanies the MV, adding more visual interest with it being timed as the words are sang.
