Analysis of Videos Produced by Other Students

In this music video that I found from Hurtwood House's YouTube page, there are a lot of things used in this that we could try and attempt at. There are some objects in the video and the scenes that would be a little harder to do, as they probably have a bigger budget and more supplies at their school - e.g. their starter scene. They include a lot of varied shot types which makes it more interesting and this also cuts to the beat of the song, especially at the beginning when she sings, "clap snap." They have also been able to achieve the UV scene with the neon paints, which in our video we are using, but without the UV lights; however I think that this will still make our video different and go along with the concept genre idea we are following. The use of only 3 scenes makes this video very simple, yet it is still very effective in the way they have edited the clips against the beat of the song and the lyrics, following Goodwin's rules.




This music video had a simple, but powerful storyline - therefore making it a narrative music video. I really liked the text that was so simple at the beginning, with the dull blue colours that showed behind it. The quality of this music video was excellent and they didn't need a massive budget to produce this. I'm not sure how they created the two wires connecting part - it was shot very well. There was a variety of shots, but they were quite invisible, as it didn't need to cut to the beat. The editing with the overlaid bird at the beginning, made it different and interesting. I think that they put a blue tone onto the clips to continue the sense of sadness and confusion inside the characters.








This music video is performance and narrative based. It includes various shades of filters on each clip as it gets further into the song. I think that this makes it interesting and different. There is a variety of different shot types with panning and tracking angles, especially when the main character is walking around and when there are shots of the band. There is an overlay of a bokeh effect on the performance clips, which I think makes it unique as they are lighter than the actual darker clip. The use of lighting makes it seem more interesting as it is coming from a lower angle on the performance clips, which we could take from to include in our video.
This relates to my music video because of the different editing techniques to make it seem more interesting
