The Goodwin Music Video Post

1. Music Lyrics Image
Illustration The Wombats –Give Me A
Try
This is a very standard music
video with a simple premise.
As expected, the cuts are
always on the beat.
Vance Joy – Riptide
The entirety of this music video is
made up of images and sections
that show what the lyrics. For
example “You gone and sang the
words wrong” is accompanied by a
shot of a woman who is singing the
wrong words.
Green Day – Revolution Radio
This video is of the band performing
in their first ever venue. Due to this,
the band is dressed how they
normally dress and act how they

The majority of this video
does cut to the beat.
However, especially during
the chorus, cuts happen off

happenings in the room.
The Wombats –Be Your Shadow
The songs lyrics tell the story of

established character. These
characters whose cars are covered
in rabbits, engage in a car chase,
which the band eventually win.
Disjuncture Arctic Monkeys – R U Mine?
This music video appear as if
it is one shot. Due to this,
the cuts in the video are
minimal. The band interacts
with the camera throughout
the video, holding it, filming
themselves on a screen etc…
Neck Deep – Motion Sickness
This video is completely
disconnected to the lyrics
throughout. This is because the
video is more centered around
showing everything the band does
(performing live, recording, etc…)
Nirvana – In Bloom
The whole of this videos
presentation is completely different
from other videos. It’s set on a show
that looks like it’s from the 1950’s,
on a black and white television
screen, where Nirvana is presented
as a very reserved band, both by
