1. Insert shot
analysis
The first few shots that are shown are
establishing shots, using both of the
characters faces for different shots of
the person. The props help to establish
the appearance and costume that was
chosen for the character within the
video. The mise-en-scene has clearly
been paid close attention to, giving the
video the appearance of a level four.
The fact that these shots are used to
introduce the music video are proof of
a well thought of music video, the
creativity that has been used in the
making of this video can be deemed as
excellent.
2. Long shot
analysis
The use of editing has been well
coordinated to keep the continuity of
the colours in the background – the
creativity and professionalism that this
music video uses gives a clear example
of attention to framing. The controlled
use of the camera highlights the
creative use of editing to make it
appear like this is an actual music
video, especially for someone that is in
the pop genre. The editing is clear,
precise and apparent to the viewer –
making the editing and continuity that
is demonstrated within the video a
clear level four.
3. Long shot
analysis
The inclusion of a dance routine shows
the attention that was paid to the
mise-en-scene, all three of the
characters keep within the colour
theme. This shows that the group had
clearly thought about the continuity
that runs throughout this video. The
dancing runs smoothly along with the
song and synchs with the beat to show
the recording and editing of sound
with images.
4. Range of long shot and close ups
analysis
The use of the moving split screens
shows the variety of shot frames that
are needed for a level four video, the
minimalistic editing demonstrate the
creativity that is used within the
editing. The use of the split screen is
exemplified by the dancing of the
characters whilst in the different
frames. It is evident that this group
have the technical skills that are
needed in order to achieve a high level
four.
