Music video analysis

All these things that I’ve done – The Killers

All these things that I’ve done is a music video by the Las Vegas band The Killers. The video has a narrative element where the band (dressed in western style outfits) are running away from Boomerang welding women while protecting a sign with the bands name on

it. Eventually the bands last standing member Brandon Flowers is hit and falls down while the sign’s lights smash. The video is shot entirely in film noir (black and white) which carries on the trend the band started with their first video Mr. Brightside (British version). Film shoot this way usually has either a dark them (horror) or its trying to establish an artistic view on something sexual. As neither of these elements are present in the video it is probably used for comedy. The video has Flowers say the lyrics, dietetic, while they are sung non-dietetic. It also starts at the end and throughout the video the chronology is

jumbled around.

D.A.N.C.E - Justice

D.A.N.C.E is a song by French duo Justice. The video shows Two men and a woman walking around a dark building with various animation constantly changing their t-shirts

into new designs, some completely different, some having ties with the other.During the Corus the lyrics appear on firstly the men’s t-

shirts, and later a black background, both times animated. The animation links in to what the characters do

e.g. when one of them zips up a jacket that’s actually a design on the shirt.

Get Back – The Beatles

Get back was filmed in the

late 60s and was just before

the band split up in 1970. It

takes place on top of the Apple building owned by the Beatles. It shows the

Beatles playing Get Back with spectators and people climbing rooftops to see them, and stopping in the street to watch them.
