4. Massive Attack - Protection The lyrics aren’t related to what’s filmed http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Epgo8ixX6Wo The video starts with a toy being on the floor which is then picked up by the same girl in the life (at ground level), then the camera follows people in the life and the music video ends with showing one of the people going down in the lift and back to the ground There’s a link to Goodwin’s theory, as there’s voyeurism, because the camera goes into different people’s room One Shot The slow movement of the camera goes with the slow beat of the music

6. Bjork - Human Behaviour Animation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuwiYq50gwA Intertextual link with ‘Goldielocks and the 3 bears’ The lyrics reflect on human nature and emotion from an animal's point of view. I like this music video, because it’s quite surreal and uses animation and I really like the parts which have another image on her forehead, as though you’re looking into what she’s thinking

7. The White Stripes - Fell in Love with a Girl Parts of the video were made by filming Meg and Jack swimming, running up/down stairs and performing with a normal camera, then were pixelated in editing and others were stop frame animation using Lego pieces http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q27BfBkRHbs Quick editing I really like this music video, because you can still recognise the people by the colours being used - The White Strips use red, white and black in a lot of their music videos
