This document discusses camera shots, mise-en-scene, location, colors, and editing effects for Adele's music video "Someone Like You". Wide shots are used to establish the London setting. Over-the-shoulder shots convey emotion and focus attention on the lyrics. Black and white coloring brings seriousness and focuses the audience on the lyrics rather than visuals. Minimal editing was used to promote the popular song.

1. Someone like you- Adele
By Angeline Barclay

2. Camera- Shots & Angles
This long wide shot of the location is very good as it shows where the
music video is set.
This is a view I want to include in my music video as it allows the
audience to have an idea of where it is set. And in this music
video, the location is London

3. Camera- Shots & Angles
This is a similar shot I am planning to use in my music video to
begin with. This is because it shows that the lyrics and the video
have some relationship to each other. It also shows that they are
the main focus.

4. Mise en Scene- Location &
Colours
The view in this slightly over the shoulder shot, is a great location. This is
because the fact that there is a shot of a view that looks over the town shows
that the person is thinking or feeling some form of an emotion and that they
rather keep it to themselves.
The black and white colour in this shot brings out the seriousness of the
song. It also helps to make the audience focus on the lyrics rather than the
music video. The black and white effect usually have connotations of
emotions, for example, loneliness, emptiness and hurt.

5. Editing- effects added to the music
video
In this video, there are no cuts, just a straight long video. This is only
because the song itself was made popular before the video was
made, therefore how the video made was not the main objective but to
promote the song to those who have not heard it before.
The only effects used in this video is the colour and the effect of making
it slightly old by making it like the black and white movies.
