A2 music video research - Yagmur


This is one of my favorite A level music videos because of how creative it is. It's very professional looking because of the variety of shots and editing techniques used. For example, the slow motion of him jumping up in the air and he remains in that position for a while. Also when he falls back into the water. It's sped up at first but as the water splashes it's extremely slow. It fits well with the speed of the song. The video is about the character suffering from psychotic depression and takes drugs so he feels like he's in another world. I really think the black and white reflects the idea of depression, madness and mystery well and gives it a more dream like and dark feeling. This is exactly what I want to achieve in my groups music video.


This is also one of my favorite videos particularly because of the majority of the very artistic shots. I really like the lighting in the video and the filters compliment them really well. The silhouette shot of the girl and boy arguing looks really good because it doesn't look grey and dull, the backdrop has a slight purple tint which is more appealing. I like that there's also multiple story lines and the shots also fit them well. For example, when the boys are running, the shots change quite quickly and the camera follows them really fast so it fits how fast the shot is going by. Or the shots at the start when the boys are sitting on the grass, it's a lot slower because there's less movement and the atmosphere is more peaceful.
