OUTLINE

We had intended a performance-based video using the locations of an alley-way and the black room to create an effective video where we could experiment with editing techniques such as colour-corector and distorting lighting techniques. With the fast-paced music and lyrics we were able to rapidly edt our footage to create a stimulating usual experience.

GENRE

Pop-Rock
Conventions used: - quick cutting between singers
- coloured lighting
- mainly performance
- one main setting but others as well
- clothes suit indie-pop image
-hanging microphone and spotlight give an old school touch.

RELATIONSHIPS

No relationship between lyrics and video - purely performance based. Cut and lyrics in timing.

CAMERAWORK

Sillouettes at the beginning are good.
Medium shots when each solo is in black room.
Not many close-ups but they are effective when they appear.

EDITING

Editing works very well with the music; cuts in the right places.
Fast cuts when music is fast-paced.
Flashes of colour work well.
Lip-synching is really well done.

MISE-EN-SCENE

The costumes look very effective with the black background and the lights as they stand out.
The shots outside with them wearing similar types of clothing (coats, skinny jeans) look good.
The shots with the amps look really cool.

SPECIAL EFFECTS

Good blur into sharp at the beginning.
Colour corrector looks awsome.
Flashes are looking good.
