I think this video relates to people in real life because people wear different masks. They may not be physical, but they are there. Being in a different social group. For example, with popular girls, who are obsessed about make up, etc, one might wear a mask like that, and show interest in those subjects, however, on the inside, or below that mask they might actually love music and dancing. What we do and our favorite activities define who we are and what masks we wear.
In my social group, I have my five closest friends, Farah, Thiyasha, Kheilah, Amara and Nafisa. I enjoy reading and swimming, so those could be two of my masks. I love to act and adore music, so an artistic mask could be another. Maybe if I went to a new school, I would wear a different mask, one like the people at the new school, to try and fit in. You are going to see my masks, but be warned, I'm not a great artist, and it was done on the computer, so this isn't exactly what I had in mind, but it's close enough.

My second mask would show my athletic side. I am not very athletic, but I like to swim, play volleyball and run long distances. This mask would also be white, but its color scheme would be comprised only of blue. Because sports are very competitive, this mask would not be delicate, but extremely harsh and abstract. Explosions of color would come down from the top of the mask to the bottom, gold glitter, to symbolize going for first place, would shimmer atop the blue. There would be crazy patterns, and stars.
My first mask (the one resting on my face) would be made of words. There would be words in different colors to make my eyebrows, my lips, my eyes, my lashes, and any finer details. This would symbolize my passion for reading and gaining knowledge. Words put together make sentences, and those sentences help us understand new things. My eyebrows would be brown, my eyes outlined with black words. My lips would be a light shade of pink, and my cheeks would have a rosy spot. It would look like an ordinary, colored mask. But if looked at closely, one would see all the words, that make up every detail of who I am. (Although, this is not the case for what is in the image, as I did it on the computer and so I could't put the words there)
