Analysis of Previous Student Work #2

I have chosen to analyse another previous student work which is quiet different to the first one. This music video is in completely different music as well as editing style than our Jamie T's Ike and Tina, but when you watch it couple of times you can realise some of the elements that link very well with our preliminary task and the whole concept of placards. It contains very good shots including close up not only on the lead singer, but also the rest of the band which is quiet important in the music video. It is very easy to guess what is the name of the band. It's very visible in the background during the performance section. MAYBE MAYBE is written in red colour which most likely represents blood, love, romance and from the first second of the video we know that it is going to be a song about love, romance etc. Although the lipsing is not the best, the cut aways to different people and placards fulfil the gap and during watching of the music video you forget about all the mistakes. There is no overall story included in the video, but as the viewer you get to know it from the lyrics and the words that are written on the placard during the section of cut aways. As I said before this song is about love/romance, so you would expect this music video to be quiet slow which compare to our one is completely different. This is why I chose to analyse this one, to show that as a music director I am aware of all the things I need to work on, change, edit, analyse to improve my own work and be able to look at it objectively and see all the mistakes that I have made.
