Analysis
This connotes
professionalism as Faulkner is
in a studio setting. The light
also mirrors a camera flash,
signifying fame and success.
Low key lighting connotes
mystery and suspense which
matches music lyrics 'dream
catch me' and performers
eyes are closed matching 'I
close my eyes.' Performers
face is not shown in whole,
adding suspense as audience
wants to see artist in full.
Close up of hands and guitar
connotes that this artist is a
real performer. Playing guitar
his guitar well and his unique
sound is part of his artist
identity. The close up
highlights this.
Distressed/ antique furniture
in empty room connotes
isolation, linking back to
lyrics: 'A place I go when I'm
alone.' Also signifies rustic
and laid back linking in to
indie folk genre.
The frames are examples of
entropic features connote
surrealism and signifies lost
memories or dreams.
The sepia effect adds to the
rustic charm of the video and
his stripped back style of
performance.
This creates an alternative
view point for the audience.
Again highlights entropic
elements and lyrics within the
video.

identity and appearance,

Long shot shows frames
surrounding Newton. They
act as a mind map portraying
his thoughts of dreams again
mirroring lyrics.
Red dapple lighting links to 'in
the setting sun' lyrics.
Entropic feature as we
presume that he is
performing in a room or
studio. Setting becomes more
surreal as video progresses
connoting dream like
qualities.
Suspended frames is an
entropic feature linking to
'dream catch me' entropic
features.
Medium close up.

photograph has retro/
vintage connotations. linking
to alternative
Medium close up
Tactile sensory element to
video.
Medium close up
Dapple sunlight and sky effect
as backdrop creates 'other
worldly' appearance. Again
an entropic feature as
Faulkner was originally
performing in empty room/
studio. Surroundings become
more entropic as lyrics
progress.
