Music video reserch (1)

My teacher recommended me to look at this video and compare my research and planning and see if I have the right amount of detail to get this standard of video and when marked this got a high B and but even if its a different type of hip hop I am going to analyse it because it should help.

One of the feature of this video is that its seems that it has quick shots and I notice that loads of things are going off in the video meaning they have done loads of different shots.

At the start of the song the imagery relates with the beat and using the lighting or the quickness of the shots and reinforce the song but during this song even if he has a large variety of shots and starts straight from the starts one after another in a good order something which I have been looking at the mixture of artist and location shots around the start of the video , but I was disappointed with the shakiness of the camera shots and even if he did that for a effect but I don't think it relates to the song and was very noticeable.

 

Noticed that he used five locations but only used the skate park , graffiti wall and the street more then the other two which were underneath a bridge and a graveyard, out of the five I think I like the skate park ,The graffiti wall and the school location that he used for the chorus and it has like a story to it and implementing the lyrics visually on the cards rather then rapping all the time and I like the different types of editing because it was something that you different really didn't notice , smooth transitions from one location to another rather then choppy.

 

The lip syncing was very good and I fee that they have practiced it very well , but before watching this I have already organised a practice session so we don't turn up and have to improvise and it turn bad quality .

 

One of the largest things that this video has helped me with was understanding what it would look like have loads of mixing locations throughout the video ,the mise en scene is an important factor the way the actor is dress makes it look more believable and authentic but also how he has used the lyrics and made visual images(video) that connote the meaning and he does it mostly at the chorus but also throughout smaller parts of the video but because my song is a little different type of hip of I am going to take the ideas and some of the advantages which I have noticed and implement them in my video but also adding some of my own ideas and editing techniques.
