This lyric video for Noah Kahan's 'Maine' serves as a custom-designed promotional piece for the Maine Department of Tourism, inviting viewers to experience the state's iconic autumnal beauty and coastal charm. The video employs a warm, intimate aesthetic, utilizing a limited, earthy autumnal color palette and grainy paper textures to evoke a cozy, ephemeral, and nostalgic feeling. The visual concept centers around a dynamic, evolving paper map. The video opens by following the map as it unfolds, creating a sense of anticipation and journey. We then zoom directly into the map, seamlessly transitioning the viewer from an overhead perspective to being immersed within the meticulously custom-crafted illustrations that depict classic Maine scenes.The journey continues with a focused moment, zooming in on a specific, picturesque location: Cape Elizabeth. The visual climax arrives with the song's closing line, "this town's just an ocean now," where an animated wave washes over the screen, concluding the piece with a dramatic and memorable visual statement that ties directly back to Maine's coastal identity.
