camera, attention to framing, variety of shot sizes and close attention to mise en
scene
• editing so that meaning is apparent to the viewer and making selective and
appropriate use of shot transitions, captions and other effects
• recording and editing sound with images appropriately.
Good cinematography, and well edited. Mood fits tone of song, however more
narrative needed. Have the couple broken up? It’s not clear. Video ends abruptly.
Needed more elements of performance.
