10 - Textual Analysis




Red Lights - Tiesto






These videos are similar to the video 'Afterglow' by Wilkinson, because it tells a story of two people as well.




In these videos there are many quick shots of things that may seem irrelevant to the story, but help tell it. These songs are edited to the beat, so the shot change to the beat of the music and it just looks more professional. The costumes are every day costumes meaning t-shirts, jeans, shorts. They are both set in America, in Red Lights there is a classic American Biker wearing leather outfits and driving Harley Davison bikes. In I need your love, it is stereotypical of being in LA at the beach and sea. Most of the shots in the second video are close ups and many selifies of the two protagonists. In the first video there are a few close ups, mainly mid-shots.

Task 9 - Work I admire

Of Monsters and Men










Of Monsters and Men make music that I like. In the first video, I like the use of black and white, and then switches to the colour with certain aspects of the video, it makes the audience focus on the thing that is in colour when the rest is black and white, it is quite an unusual video which I like and it tells a story. The use of make up in this video is very good as you are used to black and white, and there are colours and patterns on the girls face.


In the second video, Mountain Sound, it is different, again it tells a story, and again they use black and white for the majority of the video, and here and there, there will be fire that is in colour, again this draws the audience in. The majority of this video is done in stop motion which I think is creative and cool.
