Music video

Browne's character giving the homeless man (Carter) food and taking back his money.

The music video for "In a Moment" was directed by lead singer Kelly Jones^[9] and stars Liam Browne as a man stuck in a moment and Charlie Carter as a homeless man.^[10] It features an unnamed character (Browne) who tries to give money to homeless people but they refuse, wanting the food he's got instead. One of the homeless men (Carter) whom he offered money to, helps assist the character in taking his own life by burying him in the sand at the seashore, so when the tide comes in he would drown. The homeless man leaves the shovel in arms reach for the character, in case he changes his mind, and he also leaves the food and the wine he was given.^[11] As the character is about to drown, he then sees his good and bad memories, and realises his life is relevant and will get better, so he digs himself out before it's too late.^[10]

For the scene in which the character is buried in the sand, Browne's body was placed in a wooden box under the sand to prevent him from being physically buried and the top of the box was covered with sand, leaving his head above the sand and creating the illusion he's been physically buried. In the later scene when he gets out of the sand, Browne was buried in the sand horizontally.^[10]
