Plastic analysis
This document analyzes and summarizes the key elements of a short film about a girl who discovers her skin has turned plastic as she gets ready for a date. It discusses the plot, which follows the girl as she experiments with manipulating her plastic skin to make herself look more attractive. It also analyzes the film's use of minimal dialogue, soundtrack, close-up camera work showing the changes to her body, and jump cuts. The conclusion notes that while the unrealistic plastic skin would be difficult to recreate without equipment, the idea of using little dialogue and music to convey tone and emotion could be worthwhile for other projects.

Francesqa - Ghosts - Music Video Analysis

Scenes show the singer wandering alone and lyrics about forgetting dreams, suggesting he's trying to move past difficulties. Shots alternate between the band's performance and a narrative of the singer and a woman whose white dress signifies innocence. Their intimate scenes seem to depict a relationship, but later they are shown separately, implying it has ended. The video effectively balances literal and metaphorical connections between lyrics and visuals.

Music Video Analysis
The document provides an analysis of the Bombay Bicycle Club music video for the song "Carry Me". It finds that the video fits into the illustration genre by including both a performance of the song and a simple narrative of a dancing couple. While being largely performance-based, the video creates a relationship between the lyrics and visuals through the depiction of the couple's struggling relationship. Throughout the video, the music and visuals are carefully matched to create a strong bond. Motifs like drum playing are repeated, and eye contact with the camera is used sparingly to reference the notion of looking while maintaining the band's original style. The video contains no intertextual references, staying true to the indie genre.
Shannon media
This music video for "The Ghost of You" by My Chemical Romance uses several techniques from Andrew Goodwin's music video theory. It draws on conventions of the rock genre but subverts expectations by being narrative-driven rather than focused on performance. The video is set in 1940s-era America during war time and contrasts scenes of dancing with scenes of battle. It establishes characters and relationships through costumes, lyrics, and music tempo that link to the narrative. Close-ups of the band members also help develop their iconic styles.

Shannon media
This music video by My Chemical Romance uses Andrew Goodwin's theory of music video analysis. It reflects some characteristics of rock music videos through its inclusion of band performance elements that contribute to the narrative. However, the video is mostly narrative-based, set in 1940s America during the war against Japan. It contrasts scenes of the band performing at a dance with scenes from a violent battlefield. The music and editing pace reflect the mood and tone of the song. It focuses on the lead singer and bassist to tell the story of the bond between two brothers.
Andrew goodwin’s music video rules
There are several rules that music videos typically follow:
1) The music video style reflects the genre of music. For the alternative rock song "Amsterdam" by Nothing But Thieves, the video features the band performing in an abandoned factory alongside dancers.
2) The visuals in a music video relate to the song lyrics, whether illustrating, amplifying or contradicting them. In "Amsterdam", scenes of the dancers emphasize lyrics about craziness and living under the same sun.
3) The visuals also relate to the music itself, using elements like tempo. In "No More Sad Songs" by Little Mix, the climax of the music is reflected in an intensification of the visuals
You Me At Six Music Video Analysis
The music video for "No One Does It Better" by You Me At Six focuses on a narrative involving couples rather than prominently featuring the band members.

https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management.

- 2. Genre Characteristics Muse are an alternative rock band, there music video fits this genre as we see them performing the song on a ship which is very common with this genre of music. Another key feature is the lip syncing in this music video which is often used in alternative rock videos giving the sense that the band is playing live or to an audience.
- 3. Relationship between the lyrics and the visuals At some points in the music video the lyrics and visuals can be quite illustrative however, at other times they are contradicting and have no relationship at all. I think the relationship between the lyrics and visuals is amplifying. Although there isn’t a proper storyline in the music video there are times when the lyrics and visuals link well. For example ‘never fade away’ shows the fireworks fading into the dark sky; also reference to the title of the song ‘Starlight.’ However, there are other parts where there seems to be no relationship the band are performing on a ship which has no reference in the song or the music video suggesting it could be seen as a contradicting video.
- 4. Relationship between the music and the visuals I think that the tone and atmosphere in this music video is very illustrative of the music. As we can see most of the cuts are edited very well to the beat of the music. For example, in the music video when the lyrics stop we are shown the inside of the ship from different angles, quite fast paced linking in time with the beat of the music very well. Another point is in the chorus when the pace picks up in both the editing and the song and when the song comes to an end the editing is slowed down panning away from the ship whilst the music finishes.
- 5. Demands of the record label The band is very illustrative in this music video as the majority of the video is them playing the song; appearing as they usually do with their instruments and equipment as though they are playing a live show. There is lots of close up shots on all the members of the band, especially the lead. Suggesting that this music video does meet the demands of the record label including the need of close up shots.
- 6. Notion of looking and intertextual references In this music video the notion of looking does not apply as there is no sign of any female throughout the whole video but only the band playing the song. There could be signs of intertextuality in the lyrics ‘of all the people who care if I live or die’ as this is very similar to a line from The Smiths song which Muse have covered previously ‘Heaven Knows I’m Miserable Know’ which states ‘why do I give valuable time to people who do not care if I live or die.’
