2. Dear darling- Olly Murs. Narrative
In this shot we can see that the bed
is unmade which is a semiotic. This
shows a normal life setting, as this
video has a narrative genre it is very
fitting for the video.
His expression can also be
seen as a semiotic. This
shows that he is acting to
be upset which supports
the narrative genre.
These two characters
are sharing an
intimate moment
which can be seen in
real life. This acting
conforms to the words
of the song and fits in
well with the
narrative.
From this shot we can see that the
video has been shot in an
apartment. This is a very common
way of supporting this narrative
and can be seen in many videos.
3. Will.I.am- Bang Bang. Performance
In this shot I can see
instruments in the
background of the shot.
This tells the audience
that this artist is
performing his song in
a specific way.
This costume shows that the artist has ‘gone back
in time’ to perform his song, he has decided to go
back to the 1920’s-30’s during prohibition which his
song is fitting for. This also tells the audience that it
is a performance but also a narrative.
This music video has
been edited to a black
and white theme to
enhance their
performance and it also
fits the theme of the
video. This has been
chosen carefully.

This has a close up of the
artists face which shows that
the focus of the video is on
her. This creates an image on
the artist depending on what
is seen.
There is a white
background in this shot
and many others
throughout this video
which creates a focus
on the artist.
This artist is wearing a lot of
makeup to perfect her look. This
is also a very popular look for this
artist which keeps up the image
of this artist.
