Four videos here - including ‘Wrong all Along’ taken from my debut album ‘Comin’ On Strong’
Check out the unused 'green screen' stuff for 'Better Things to Do' - this was such fun to do!!
Better Things to Do
This one was filmed in my parents' bedroom, believe it or not!! It felt really wierd crawling about on their bed but I managed to forget about it once the camera started rolling!!
The original idea I had was to be getting ready to go out - fully dressed and putting make-up on, but the film director preferred me walking about in nothing more than a teddy, trying not to flash bits and pieces! We filmed some of it in the pitch dark in a wood - now that was scary!! The most fun part was getting to throw things all over the place - especially throwing them at the camera man!

Terrified
This one is pure green screen - I had to sing and move about all over the place with nothing else in the room but a wind machine and the cameraman... it was very odd having to put emotion into the song with nothing to feed from. After hours of this, re-singing this bit and that, we went home and waited for a few weeks whilst the video director put all the backgrounds in - hope you like it!!

Wrong all along
“This song is really special to me. Like most artists I draw inspiration from experiences – be it happy, sad, stressed or ecstatic and it probably doesn’t take a scientist to figure out what this song is about!
I chose this song for my first video because it's my favourite on the album. The location was fantastic and caught the mood exactly, and I loved the opportunity to be really OTT glamorous. I was freezing though and had to be wrapped in a huge coat in between takes to stop from turning blue!! Although I’m back to being blonde again I loved my ‘dark phase.’ “ Katie

Better Things to Do (green screen outtakes)
When I was in the studio doing 'Terrified' the video man got me to do some green screen work for 'Better Things' as well - it never got used but here it is anyway - all cape swirling and arms floating everywhere!!
I'm told it's a bit Kate Bush - what do YOU think??
