Close up Close up Close up
There is several close up to the necklace and photo of a man, this gives the
impression she is close to the person in the photo and these are his
belongings and she attach to them and she is missing him.
2. Analysis
In Katy Perry song there repetitive range of
shots which involves a few close up and mid
shots. Through out the songs we are seeing
Katy sat at a make up table a lot from which
could be classed as performing shots but you
will realise throughout the video it is narrative
shot as she getting ready to go out to a funeral
in the video.
3. Mid shot Close up Mid shot
Katy is singing to the items
which makes us think she is Within the shots there’s a lot of camera movement
singing to the person in the photo. within one shot, I haven’t include the images
for how it moves as there would be load more
screen shots.

Analysis
The song thinking of you is meant to be set in the
1940’s, we recognise by there hair makeup and
the setting. This is different type of song is
different to other song she has san as this one is
set older back than her new ones as they are
more in the present/future.

Ellie Goulding song ‘your song’ only ever has
performing shots through-out. The video to
the song has no storyline behind the song.

There is loads of close up shots of random
Items which she is playing with or touching

10. Analysis
Within the music video it looks like she is having
fun and messing around with her friends having
a laugh. There is shots of Ellie singing towards
the camera but the majority of the time she is
just having fun with her friends.
13. Analysis
Through-out Ellie Gouldings song she uses a wide range
of different locations which in comparison to Katy Perry
is completely different as she used locations that all
linked together to create her narrative. Ellie song
doesn't have a narrative to it if the shots are her
performing there shots of her having fun with her
friends which then appeals to her target audience.

Right from the beginning we can tell who's her
target audience is as we start up with a close up o
her feet, but when she starts singing we have a long
shot of her sat on the phone. We see she has a toe
separator in-between her toes which shows she is
giving herself manicure, this automatically appeals
more to the girl target audience

18. Analysis
In Taylor swifts video it is mostly performing shots of
her singing and no shots of her narrative story.
Through-out the song she might have props that link
into her lyrics of her song but there isn’t a narrative
story. We could get the impression she is retelling
her story to someone else on the phone at the
beginning but we aren’t sure.
19. Close up Close up Long shot
Within Taylor swift song ‘our song’ there
is a wide range of shots and she also has
shots that are still but then within the
same shot she will zoom in and out but
the shot will be still focused on her. This
happens a lot through-out Taylor's music
video.

In the song Taylor Swift has her hair done and make up
done all nice and pretty. Her clothing isn’t a fashion
statement as she starts off in shorts and a very top
but later on in the video we see her in a purple flow
prom dress. This could create the illusion she is in
her own fairy-tale fantasy and she is a princess. This
bring us back to the image that Taylor creates fairy-
tale illusions in her songs.

The location is starts off in her bedroom/bathroom which is typical place for a teenage girl to be and seeing she is
on the phone it is somewhere private for her to talk. Later on in the video we end up on her porch which is very
girly setting with the use of prop of pink iron chair her colourful lanterns.
24. The genre we are focusing on in
particular is ‘Pop’
From looking at the different camera shot within these two music
videos it has shown me that not every music video has a narrative
within it and can just be performing shots. Songs from other genre’s as
well if they are having performing shots they are in some complete
different location to where they are in the narrative location, the
location through-out the music video’s stay the same. The Katy Perry
video her narrative of her song involves her performing shots as she is
seeing about a loved one who has gone away. Ellie Goulding song she
doesn’t have a narrative at all and all of her shots are fun shots which
has all her friends in and they are just messing about and having fun.
This is similar with the Taylor swift song I have chosen as she just has
performing shots which has props which refer to her lyrics so it could
class as her narrative.
