Behind the Scenes with Taylor Swift and Post Malone: The Making of "Fortnight" Music Video

Step into the fascinating world of music video production with Taylor Swift and Post Malone as they unveil the creative process behind their latest collaboration, "Fortnight." This exclusive behind-the-scenes look, presented by THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT, takes viewers inside the imaginative municipal setting where the video unfolds.

The video starts with an introduction to the "tortured poets department," a fictional government building where the behaviors and minds of poets are studied. Swift describes the unique and quirky atmosphere, emphasizing the stereotype that poets are often perceived as "crazy." The scene is meticulously crafted with subtle visual cues, including slight head tilts to convey a sense of derangement.

Post Malone joins Swift on set, bringing his distinct energy to the project. The duo engages in a playful yet focused performance, typing on vintage typewriters—an element that adds a steampunk vibe to the video. The interaction between Swift and Malone is electric, as they synchronize their movements and expressions to capture the essence of shared thoughts and creative synergy.

The production team experiments with various visual effects, transforming ordinary scenes into surreal, almost dreamlike sequences. One standout moment features a dramatic transition from a white-out effect to an overhead shot of Swift and Malone lying in a pile of papers on a highway. The papers form the shape of Swift's side profile, creating a stunning visual metaphor for the creative process.

Taylor Swift shares her passion for on-the-fly creativity, explaining how some of the most memorable shots are conceived just moments before filming. This spontaneous approach adds an authentic and dynamic quality to the video, making it a true artistic collaboration.
