Natalie Portman - "Black Swan" videoclips

Scans of Natalie Portman EW photoshoot

FOR REFERENCE:
White/Gray scale- White Swan/Flashbacks
Blue- The Black Swan's transition into/from the White Swan's perspective/Flashbacks
Normal Colors- Reality/the Black Swan

This video, deals with the Black Swan, but at the same time, the White Swan. As the Black Swan dances, her opposite personality, the White Swan, is terrified that her other side has come out of herself, because it's the side of her personality she has tried to hide away. Thus, while dancing, the White Swan (represented by white gray scale) looks upon the Black Swan, who has now completely taken over, leaving the White Swan to watch hopelessly. The video ends how it starts, with the Black Swan fading into the light.
THE COOL THING WAS, when I was overlooking the Black Swan and White Swan ballet scenes, there is one part in particular when the White and Black Swan mimic each other, when they are 'flapping their wings' which made me go, "Wow, I can't believe I caught that!"
