This video directed by Diane Martel is fairly 
simplistic. It appears the whole thing was shot in 
one location. This is similar to the idea we have of 
shooting many different shots of our models in the 
same location. In a way this makes a video more 
interesting as well as displays artistic ability, as you 
are restricted to a one space you must recreate it. 
This is just one example to the many close 
ups in this video. I find these to be the 
best type of shot, as it allows the 
audience to properly see the faces of the 
characters. This often makes it easier for 
an audience to identify with who’s on 
screen, as emotions are clearly shown in 
their facial expressions. The close up will 
be a very useful shot in our music video 
as there is or are strong messages within 
it, being able to empathise with 
who/what is on screen can prove to be 
beneficial when communicating detailed 
ideas with an audience.
Props are also very important in a music 
video as they are able to make a shot more 
interesting and fun. 
Here it could have easily just been a mid 
shot of a pretty girl with a surprised facial 
expression, but adding a toy car rolling 
down her back makes it more appealing and 
gets the audience wondering about its 
significance. It could be to show off her 
body line or it could be symbol for a deeper 
meaning such as rich/people in power often 
‘drive’ all over those inferior to them in 
order to maintain power. 
Due to this effect it would be a very useful 
to use props in our video, as it is a more 
stimulating way to convey meaning.
Costume is also an important factor for a 
music video as you are able to tell who or 
what type person someone is through their 
clothes. 
Videos tend to have any extra personnel who 
is not the star in different costumes and 
often extras are dressed the same or similar. 
This helps the audience to distinguish the 
star in the video. However in videos where 
there is no star/performance element 
costumes can be used to show the different 
positions between characters, or a symbol 
maybe for economic statuses. 
We have already thought about costumes to 
show the difference between two worlds. 
Again it is a more exciting way to show these 
dissimilarities to an audience.
