Filming: Issues and Future Plans

After filming the first day of my music video it became apparent to both my and I actress that we could not agree upon a further filming date where we when we were both free to shoot the rest of the music video. This was an issue as I planned to film and make a first draft of the video over christmas which was becoming increasingly unlikely so I made the decision to re-film the footage that I had compiled with a new actor who was more readily available to film.
I roughly edited what I had already filmed with my original actress to see if the footage ideas that I had were working in the way that I wanted them to and found that I did not like what I had filmed at all and felt that it didn't work with the atmosphere of the song in the way that I should.
This is the footage:

I feel as though there are too many cuts and the whole video so far feels too jumpy and this does not fit with the smoothness of the song. I also think that the footage that I had for the opening voice over audio was far too serene and felt disjointed with the atmosphere of this section and that the footage that follows this is also disconnected front the song. I would like to change this section completely and create a more intense atmosphere for the voice-over to contrast with other more calm footage that will feature later.
