"Canvas" is a song by British singer/songwriter Imogen Heap, from her album Ellipse.
Premiere
Music video for 'Canvas' premiered via MSN Video on 17 July.[1][2] It was also made available for free download in exchange for one tweet five days later on 22 July on Imogen Heap's Twitter.[3][4]
Release
'Canvas' was from the beginning meant to be released only as a music video and never as a single. It was also never released on TV. Imogen stated it would be a treat for her fans who waited so long for new material.[5]
Music video
Idea for a music video for 'Canvas' formed back in February 2009. Heap asked her fans on her Twitter if they could point a place where hills, snow and sea meet together and stated it's for a 'Canvas' video.[6][7] The video was directed by Tom Kelly[8] and filmed in Bonavista, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.[9] It portrays a man constantly walking through the woods, snowy landscapes and hills carrying an easel with a black canvas put on it. At the end of the video he consequently lands up on a mountain top where he lays down the easel and looks ahead. The shooting began in the first week of April.[10] Post-production lasted longer than expected due to unknown reasons.
