Eterna’s video for “Trippin” begins as clips fade from two people walking around a parking lot in darkness to her silhouette visible against a red backdrop. Her rich voice creeps into the film and she is dancing under strobe lights in a black and white haze.
The synths rise and the strobe lights turn multicolor. The video a perfect recognition of the song’s disco undertones. Eterna lies still while hands hypnotically sway fog around her body, bathed in multicolor light.
The music video switches between stories. There is happiness and sadness. The feeling of loneliness is a room full of people. People dance around Eterna and she sits alone – a crown resting on her head. The video ends with people dancing and hanging out in a parking lot.
Eterna skates away as she sings the lyrics “I’m not sure what I’m running from cus this love is what I dreamed of, maybe I’m just scared of forgetting myself.”
The video ends with black and white strobe lights flashing over Eterna’s face. Someone in the distance watching her steadily, she says “I’m trippin over you”.
