Taylor Swift - Out Of The Woods - The Making Of 

She lost him But she found herself And somehow that was everything. I like this sentence...

"Cut! That's a wrap on Taylor Swift!" *Taylor actually wearing a blanket wrap* ..................................................... *Silently dies of laughter* 😂😂

I love how she runs to the blanket lol so cute

0:51 . "Probably very hungry". This hurts after watching miss americana

Taylor is so adorable, I dont know why some people hate her.

"thats a wrap on taylor swift" well with that blanket, i have chosen to take this literally

ever since Miss Americana when I see pictures or videos of her from this time in her life all I can think about is her eating disorder and it makes me so sad because she's so beautiful. but I'm so happy she's doing better now. does anyone else think of this or is it just me.

reply if you would like to hug Taylor swift

Who else saw at 2:09 that the woman was trying to put makeup or somethig on her face but she couldnt because taylor was busy with wooaah-ing?

Very hardworking person. She puts passion and effort on everything she does: from writing the songs, composing, recording, filming the video... No wonder why she doesn't want her works on Spotify.

No one gonna a comment how amazing the wolves were. They played a huge part in the video making. They deserve some applause🙌🐺❤️

"that's a wrap on taylor swift" and they literally wrapped taylor swift 😂

I feel like nobody! nobody! in the fucking world acknowledges how hard this woman has worked to get where she is. Everyone is trying to tear her apart with all those sexist bullshit and here she is showing proof that she is not just successful because of high profile relationships but because she tried her fucking ass off to work for what she has now. Leave Taylor alone.

She's so down to earth and seems so genuine. I'd love to meet her!

As a New Zealander I absolutely love that she filmed this music video in NZ, it's one of my fave songs from 1989 ❤

THE SOUND SHE MADE AT 3:39 IS SO ADORABLE

Never go to the woods with taylor swift she will only keep on asking you are we out of the woods

I thought that a lot of the video was done with green screen. I am so happy and impressed that it's not. Out of the Woods has to be one of my all time fave music videos; it's so beautiful and mesmerising.

okay the fact that she went above and beyond to film this music video in New Zealand is incredible. Taylor you are insane ❤

4:26 taylor trying to stay warm in that blanket😂😂 Love that

2:07 made me laugh, because the girl trying to put something on Taylor and Taylor is like NOPE

Taylor seems so appreciative of everyone and everything

This is her best MV

Nobody makes music videos like this anymore

i thought.. taylor was a bossy grouchy lady.. but this video changed my mind.. now i know taylor is not bossy or grouchy, she is basicly a fun and normal entertaining girl that most people didnt know about. congrats taylor, this has been the best mv you have made all 2016

Flawless!

Love this

"run to the blanket, run to the blanket, run to the blanket, run to the blanket" ~Motivation for Taylor

out of the wood and style are the most beautiful videos from 1989 era

I live in New Zealand and my dads crane company helped get some if the shots like the one over the cliff

Can we all just admire that Taylor is not only a great singer but a great storyteller

I'm not regretting being a fan for like 8 years now. Might not be with you since the beginning but I plan to stay till the end ❤😢 she deserves appreciation for her efforts not diss and all the nasty things said to her.

I wish she would've talked about the wolfdogs in this video! They're sooo cool!

Ahhh taylor😍😍😍😍 PROUD TO BE A SWIFTIE!

Out of the wood is the MASTERPIECE

i love how we stumble here altogether after 7 years

Who ever reading this comment you look awesome

This is like the best songs ever

Queen of everything👑😍

Out of The Woods is an awesome video. Especially when you see the effort that went into it, in this short look at how it was made, you can see why. I love the attention to detail. Similarly a lot went into the live version on the 1989 tour. It was immense in how big the sound was. I'm thinking that there is more to this song than we know.

The wolves are cute

This great video deserves more views

i cant BELIEVE how she felt doing this well, she did it for her fans and she was cold, and she crawled in mud for us to enjoy. i know what crawling in mud feels like it is not fun and it is FREEZING cold and she did it for us. And also people stop bulling her she made a new album just to show us how she feels about how people are giving her a bad reputation PLEASE STOP she is a nice person

Her blue dresses are PERFECT

So much effort for a video tho. Kinda sad that this vid has significantly less views than the rest of the 1989 era ones.

Taylor behind the scenes is such a great, smart and caring person with so much humor! She really is one of the best people on the Earth, and everyone who loves her and appreciates all the things she has to do in order for us to be entertained really know why she's this amazing. We love you Taylor and we always will, no matter what! We're lucky to be living in the Taylor Swift era.

THIS VIDEO SHOULD BE IN A MUSEUM! ITS A FREAKING ART WORK!

The music video deserves a billion views, she thought of so much and DID so much🥺

it must've been freezing (Taylor: runs to blanket after each shot) 😘😘wly

Taylor swift is taking over the world, (evil laugh plays) LAUGH WITH ME SWIFTES LAUGH MWHHAHAH

Makes folklore with trees and woodsy. I love her!

This song is one of my favorites she’s made. It’s beautiful and relatable.

I'm 97% sure she found a way into Narnia

Big Hand For Taylor!👏👏 So proud of you

I hate how people say shit about her I love her she is a beautiful and hardworking You don't have to like her just talk shit about her she is an inspiration

*I LOVE SHE RLY PUTS IN EFFORT AND CREATIVITY TO HER MUSIC VIDEOS TO TELL US A WHIRLWIND STORY*

anyone else felt bad for that lady who wanted to fix taylors makeup but just got ignored

okay. but who was the other taylor swift why is no one asking that

When I see how much work she puts in her music, there's no wonder why she is so famous and loved. She deserves it

i love this mv omg

one of the best singers of the centruy!

I like her personality.

Her creativity,her hardwork,her talent are all clearly visible in her songs.Taylor is just beyond words...

my queen

Finally the making of, that all swifties wanted!

Cool. Especially for me, as a word nerd , to hear Taylor Swift use the word "bedraggled" in exactly the right way. I want to give a few of my thoughts on the symbolism of the images in the video. Well... more than a few : ) 1. Tendrils at the beach: Swift is shown looking outward to sea, which is a classic symbol of anticipation and longing. In the old days, wives waited for their sailor husbands to return by looking out for far off ships. Swift's character is thinking about the future, and remembering the past at the same time. As soon as the thorny vines come up, we are entering a memory of the past, bust since it is the beginning of the video, the dark and threatening vines function as foreshadowing. They are an unwanted intrusion into the previously uncluttered scene. They symbolize worry invading paradise- a peaceful mind being disturbed by the outside world. 2. Wolves: Voracious predators chasing a lone prey. It is very significant that although the song involves 2 people, the video has only 1. This is not a literal enactment of the song's narrative. If it were, we would see some dreamy guy fleeing along with Swift. The series of images and scenes metaphorically show her thoughts and feelings- emphasizing her isolation and inner turmoil. We don't see a cut to a couple pushing aside the furniture and dancing as a flashback. This whole video is a metaphorical flashback, like a dream. The wolves are symbols of all the troublesome thoughts that come from outside the dream world. Of course you could make it simple and just think of them as paparazzi, but we're trying to stay highbrow here ! It's worth noting that the wolf tears Swift's dress, but does not actually bite into her. That suggests that the danger is being stripped of protection, being made vulnerable and having your private nakedness exposed to the world. Not having the wolves actually bite her helps maintain the sense of being in a dream that is not quite a pure nightmare. The dream is primarily about struggle, not about victimization. The wolves are from the "rest of the world" which is "black and white," (here they are very dark greens and browns) - while Swift's vivid blue dress and skin are in "screaming color." All of a sudden she is on a cliff, pauses, throws her necklace into the sea, and dives in soon after. You could say she's following her heart- if you want to get that literal and cheesy. I'd rather not, but YOU could. The fact that the leap occurs just as she sings "two paper airplanes flying" is much more satisfying to think about, IMO. It's not a cliche'. It's a symbol of daring and impermanence. She has to make the choice between jumping into the unknown, or being consumed by fear. If we're going to relate this back to the real world, it might be that she's afraid of what other people will say, or future emotional pain- but that standing still is not a way to avoid it. Luckily, most jumps off a cliff in dreams aren't fatal. Here she gets teleported to a beach. Isn't that conveeeeeenient :) This could be an interlude of peace, as in the dancing "like we stood a chance." 3. Muddy swamp: Unfortunately, freedom and peace- even in love- don't last forever. Apparently that is especially true for Taylor Swift (snark snark). So the beautiful world turns into muck, and the dance has become a slog. The problems return. People are talking about her behind her back, maybe her parents don't approve or her friends aren't very supportive. She's striving, reaching out towards the sky- (escape to a pure and maximally free space)- but the thorny vines burst up and keep her down on earth, even though she seems to be transported to a peaceful state of mind by the memory "You were looking at me." For a moment, the vines stop constricting her, and she is magically cleaned of most of the mud. Then painful reality then imposes itself again in the dream, and even when she breaks out of the constricting thorns, she falls down repeatedly. This is sort of like being "made to fall apart, then fall back together." We see a series of alternating fire and ice, which is much like passion interspersed with distance and separation- as in an on-again-off-again or long distance relationship. But at the end, the wolves are standing still. Somehow she has gained a power to keep them from attacking. The power is mental, since she is turned away from them- not facing them and holding them at bay by breathing fire at them or something. That is one way they could go in future videos- SUPER POWERS. She's already broken through a concrete wall in "Bad Blood" with her (95 pound?) body- why not laser vision or something? If you're going to get revenge on a guy who was a jerk to you, wouldn't lasers and fire be an awesome way to go about it? Maybe just wait for them until the walk right in front of all the red carpet photographers and then just evaporate all their clothes. "Ha Ha. He's so....scrawny." 4. Hand on shoulder: The Swift who has been through the woods- and danger/torment- lays a hand on the shoulder of her past self- the Swift we saw at the beginning. Presumably this is like an attempt to reassure her past self that she will get through her trials and come out OK on the other side. But the cyclical nature of time in the video suggests the cyclical nature of memory- we keep replaying the past over and over in our heads as a way to try to make sense of it and learn from it. But each time we have to remember the pain as well as the joy. We try to use our painful experiences as a way to "find our self," and hopefully not make the same mistakes or be exposed to the same fears again. -------------- Like my theories? Cool. But if you don't agree with something I said, please feel free to say so in the replies. Thanks for reading !

And now I’m crying

When I think of the theme of this video(she found herself after the struggles) is what I think of when I hear "invisible String". I know she sings about Joe but I always think of her going through pain and not knowing about the inner strength that's followed her in an invisible String in her life

Of course New Zealand. LOTR & Hobbit New Zealand shooting. I swear that place has the worlds most beautiful lanscapes

I'm not part of his fandom but I love how she put so much effort in all she does, I watched the behind the scenes of her tour and she decided everything clothes, how they're going to dance, the scenography, in her album I love the thematic she put on, like Polaroid thing, the design of the CD everything, and the music videos are awesome, the songs are so good, she deserves all the awards she wins all of this is worth it

who's here after the 1989 Taylor's Version Vault quizzes?!👀

Taylor is the youngest icon alive..

The director and workers should get a lot of praise for this video! Those locations and sets are absolutely amazing

Guys, today's my birthday!!! I'm so happy I love being a swiftie

Thing I love about Taylor is that she's such a down to earth NERD, which I find extremely attractive...

can't believe it's been 5 years. time flies so fast

2:05 that lady is just there, trying to put something in taylor swift's mouth but just can't xD

Does anyone else live in New Zealand and got really excited when her location was leaked?

A definite favorite of mine! Thanks for sharing the behind the scenes for “Out of the Woods”! So many amazing things have to happen and come together to make a song like this so amazingly great!

Taylor Swift is so down to earth and talented person she deserves all her success.

I'm still wondering who is that mysterious girl in the end of the video clip.

im so lucky to be living in the time she is living in

Joseph Kahn + Taylor Swift make great music videos!

The best video ever from Tay !❤

Taylor is just so amazing....*sigh* #goals

I cant be the only who thought all the scenes were real??

Forever come back to her behind the scenes when I need to feel inspired. The sets and costumes in this amaze me even almost 10 years later 🥺❤️

Shout out to the music video crew who literally put all their time and hearts -- along with taylor -- to make this amazing video. Unlike films, people rarely give the crew credit because the main product is the singer/performers. Just watching this makes me so happy! I applaud the camera men (DP), make-up artists, production designers, Director ect. Well done!

Soon she'll be out of the woods❤️

I can't be the only one who was waiting for this to happen 🌚

I can't believe they got TAYLOR SWIFT to do all of those dangerous shots, wow.

Can't wait for Taylor's version❤.

and people say she's not hard working ? ....she puts the "most" effort in everything and this is why she is here where she is winning grammys and oscars etc so much effort , only taylor can freeze to death and still make it look professional ..go girl

I love her so much

I love watching stuff like this. It is so beautiful. All the hard work and creating. I love it!

FREAKING OUT RN 1989 WAS SUCH A MASTERPIECE

4:10 Best.. Pun... EVER!

This song and the Music video is a masterpiece.. this is the most underrated song of the Taylor Swift's all the albums
