Here are my notes of analysis for three music videos:
Narrative Based- The decemberists: 16 military wives
-walking in rythem of the music, slow motion effect
-editing- words appearing to help tell the story
-voice over, pre-recorded
-cuts to each clip are a steady pace which matches the music
-Visuals reinforced in the music
-Close up camera angles to introduce the different characters
-different scenes in different sets for particualr parts of the story
-they put the lyrics of the song into telling the story and using it as a script for the characters
Performance Based- The white stripes: The hardest button to button
-Lots of cutting and editing
-Slices parts together to show instruments being played
-Quick cuts to match the quick, clear, catchy rythem of the music
-Red clothes and instruments which stood out from the dull grey scenary chosen
-Stop motion animation
-Old school retro, hasnt used a lot of transitions
Concept baded- Bjork: Declare independance
-Repetition in song which matches the repetition in movement
-Quick cuts
-Jumping up and down is repeated
-Catchy song
-Constant betaing sound is like the sound of the machinary
