Analysis of the two music videos we have seen

I have personally marked this video and I decided that it is Excellent. The mise-en-scene, I believe is very well though out as it match the lyrics and the genre of the music. The fast paced editing used can be very useful for our music video that we are planning. This is because the music itself is very fast paced therefore we can match our music video to the music by using this piece of editing technique. This way we are able to follow Goodwin's rules.


I thought that this music video is also excellent. Similarly to the first video, I thought the mise-en-scene is very well done. I feel that this music video is much more creative than the first one because of the use of props such as the lining. They used it in such a way which gives the impression that she was being trapped. This is an idea which we can use for our music video. Because of the fact that we are planning on using Levi Strauss' theory of binary opposites as freedom and trapped, we can use the idea of using a props such a lining to give the impression of being trapped.
