‘Rock’: U2-With or without you.
Mise-en-scene/Lighting• Strobe lights.• Smoke.• Instruments.• Long hair (pony tails).• Use of lighting to make
shadows in the background.• Dull environment/lighting.
Camera Work:• Extreme close ups.• Editing is quite slow
motion.• Wide shots of the
room. • Upside down
camera editing.• Special effects.
Use of instruments in the background, but nobody playing them.
Special affects and upside down camera work could back up the lyrics of the songs by saying that ‘without you’ everything is upside down and abnormal.
Ends with him repeatedly spinning with the guitar and stumbling off stage, again indicating the struggle ‘without you’.
‘Indie’ : Oasis-Champagne Supernova.
Songs always seem to be slow/calm.
Videos usually match the tempo of the music, slow, if the songs seems dull and depressing the video editing tends to match it.
Camera work: • Close ups.• Jump shots.• Special effects.• Wide shots.• Use of pans.
Camera work indicating the band Oasis doing drugs, quite warped, lots of spins, zooms etc.. Suggests that the band members often felt funny like the camera affects.
Zooms in a lot on the instruments, indicating that they are a band.
Quotes in the songs back this up also, “We were getting high”.
Ends with them all passed out/asleep on the floor, suggests that the songs is very ‘chilled’ and the editing of the video also suggests quite a calm environment.
‘R&B’: Beyoncé - Crazy In Love ft. JAY Z
Video links:• Women never have a lot of
clothes on.• Men are always all over women.• Women do the same sort of
sexual dance moves.• Men always seem empowered,
women do what they say, dance around them.
Camera Work:• Close up shots mostly of
women. • Group shots women hovering
around men.• Group shots with the main
singer in the middle, indicates power.• Wide shots mostly with the
house in the background shows the main singer is rich :Usher-Burn.
Ends with them looking out of breath, as throughout the song they use quite fast, upbeat but sexual dances.
• Fast pace camera shots: indicates the fast dance routines.
• Extreme close ups on faces: shows sweat on their faces.
‘Hip Hop’: Chris Brown-Liquor.
Camera work:• Camera shots looking at it from
their point of view, also another persons point of view looking down on the singers face.
• Special affects that make the room spin and seem very warped.
Special affects give an indication of the use of drugs (being spiked).
Stereotypically it would be men to spike the woman's drink and get them home, however, it makes a change for the woman to be taking advantage of the male (Chris Brown).
Atmosphere/background is very children like, colourful and seems like a play area type. Use of illuminous colours and glow in the dark stuff, looks like a fun house with the mirrors etc.. Doing all different types of special effects, again linking back to drugs/being spiked.
Girls being not covered up that much and wearing quite sexual clothing or little clothing, links back with R&B music videos.
Mise-en-scene.• Lights-colourful.• Costumes for females:
sexual, not much clothing.
• Costumes for men: plenty of clothes, very covered up, however in one section shows off his body.
‘Pop’: Taylor Swift-Wildest Dreams.
Camera Work:• Close ups, specifically of them
kissing.• Pans: with the animals running
in the background.• Close ups on Taylors red lips. • Always close ups on the
females make up.• Hand held camera work in
‘Cool for the summer- Demo Lovato’ :getting the audience to believe she’s recording it herself.
Always seems to be a romantic story with male and female. However, also a disagreement and then they always end happy.
Song links with the video: as the video is Taylor and the man filming it also shows their life out of filming, showing that they still like each other.
Mise-en-scene:• Again, not much clothing
on the females.• Taylor is always nicely
dressed and well presented.
• Lighting-bright but giving off a dusty affect as it is suppose to be filmed in an African desert. –Wildest Dreams.
• Lighting is very bright also, but colourful-Cool for the summer.
