Narrative change and no drummer

At first, it came to our attention that we could not have our drummer perform with his drums at the top of Primrose Hill as there would be an issue with transporting the drums and we may get in trouble performing there with the band. Therefore we chose to then shoot the performance in our school studio. However, after recording the footage of our band in the recording studio and reviewing it, we realised that the shots we used were not as effective as we thought they would be and so we cut it out of the video as a whole. This in turn changed our narrative slightly as the band were no longer coming together to perform, but were coming together to fulfil their dream of being in a band. This is now conveyed symbolically as they run up the hill at the end, signifying how they are running into their future. Although the drummer is the backbone of the band, it is not vital for him to be featured. This has been done in other bands music videos, such as The Verve.
