- 2. Foals – My Number https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRR_pvZcu-o This music video has a cross over of performance and narrative in it, following a main character of whom is trying to get into a foals concert. I really like the lighting of the video and I think it creates a really psychedelic feel to the video. Another strong point about this video is the camera angles used as they diversify from close ups to panning medium shots, this helps to make the video more interesting. This leads into the mirror and blurred effects which really enhance certain stages of the song in faster, more up beat sections. I also think that the slightly humorous aspect at the end of the video (with the character outside watching the 3 girls dance) helps to make the video almost relatable and get a message across, this would be quite a satisfying thing to achieve in my own music video.
- 3. The Drums - Let’s Go Surfing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VkQrJ3SVXko In comparison to the foals music video this follows the generic cheesy pop video but they have done it in a way that let’s the audience that they are taking the mickey out of themselves. I like how this video captures the band members running towards the camera, this would be a technique that I will want to use in my own music video. The video includes elements of performance such as lip synching and instrument playing- the way they have used a stop frame to make the band members hold and play the instruments in the next frame is very clever and almost humorous which fits in with the theme of the video.
- 4. The Avalanches - 'Since I Left You' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpqm-05R2Jk The music video for The Avalanches- ‘Since I Left You’ follows genres of performance and narrative throughout the duration of the video. It starts with a long shot of two minors in black and white then as they hear music they go to investigate- they locate the music and the video changes from black and white into colour. I think the idea of tones and colouring of the shots to create an effect would be useful in my own video to show the audience a change in the situation. The performance element of the video shows one minor with two dancers performing to the song. Towards the end of the song and video it shows an older version of one minor speaking about losing the other, this relates back to the narrative side of the music video.
