1. Shot Count – Rammstein – Du Hast
I counted 53 shots with in the first minute and then times that by 3 to gain
an approximation of the full video shot count this came to 159 in total.
The main type of shots used were close up on the band, characters and objects
with in the video. There were a few long shots of the band and had them staring
at a downwards angle to the camera.
Andrew Goodwin's theory can relate to this video in many aspects such as the
technical aspects the editing is fast and has exploding effects keeping in tune
with the fast passed lyrics and 'explosive' meaning.
The narrative and performance of this video constantly flicks between the band
and the characters and show the man leaving a woman in a car and walking
away with a gun.
Their star image suits the nature of the song, they, the band members use masks
to conceal their identity.
