Fading Into Lyrics|| A Tyler, The Creator Story

Shoots & Brunch

Zara's POV

Spending the last week of January with my girlfriends was the breath of fresh air I needed. Now I can focus on what's important...doing my job and ignore all the other emotions I'm feeling. I really need to find a way to approach Tyler when I have concerns about my workload, but today will not be that day. Today we were on the set of the video for the song "Wharf Talk" for the deluxe album of his recent album.

We were working on the scene where I had to wear the chroma key suit and ride a bike down the road beside Tyler. I had no clue that he meant for me to wear this, and I didn't like it one bit.

Zara: So how long is this shot so I can get back into my regular clothes?

Paunch: (shrugs) It shouldn't take long at all.

Tara: Um. Yes, it will. We have to run-through the song in its entirety at least two or three times to make sure we can get all angles.

Tyler: (snickers) You'll be aight.

Zara: You're lucky that I can see through this mask, so I have no good excuse to run into the back of your bike.

Tyler: (fake gasps) Why would you want to bring me harm?

Zara: Why would you want to bring me public shame wearing this suit?

Tyler: (sucks teeth) Oh please. This is a closed set. No one outside of the crew is going to see you. Stop being so dramatic all the time.

Zara: Whatever. Am I getting paid extra for this?

Tyler: (playfully rolls eyes) Sure, if that's what you want.

Tara: Alright. Cue Playback!

The music started to play from the top of the song and we were cued to start riding the bikes. The point was to make it look as if the bike next to him were leisurely cruising beside him, so I made sure to keep my movements as chill as possible.

We ran about three takes, as mentioned before. I was finally able to get out of this hot and tight ass suit and into my comfortable clothing while T got ready for the next scene. When I came back onto the set, he shot me a confused look.

Tyler: Are you not cold in that tiny ass skirt?

Zara: (mugs hims) Don't worry about what I got going on over here. I am just fine in my little ass skirt. Thank you very much.

Tyler: (grins and shakes his head) You just have a weird taste in clothes sometimes. That's all.

Zara: (snickers) Just like how you have a weird taste in food all the time.

Tyler: (waves her off) Nothing is wrong with my taste in food. Your taste in food is just boring.

Zara: Well then I can say the same for your taste in style choice.

Tyler: (snickers) Not when everyone wants to dress like me and has been for years.

Zara: (grins) Because they're weirdos too just like you.

Tyler: (licks his lips) But you l- (clears his throat) Yeah okay.

Zara: (raises a brow) What was that?

Tyler: What was what?

Zara: You were about to say something then completely stopped. You're ruining our banter.
