2/9

Within in

chasing

pavements you

can see this

is a literal

component as

they are

chasingpavements.

This is a

method we used

in our music

video as we

illustratedthat Mackenzie

needed a

minute on his

own.


3/9

Audience as a voyeur

In our music video we had shots

where Mackenzie was being

followed and this was caught onCCTV. This is therefore making

the audience a voyeur as they

shouldnt really be watching it

but are.

The audience is also beinga voyeur in Lady Gagas

video telephone as they

watching her leave prison.

This is a element that

engages the audience and

makes them want to watchmore.


4/9

Star image- Mackenzie

Throughout the piece you know

Mackenzie is the star as he is

established right at the

beginning with the first fewshots of him. We have

developed this component just

like the Eminem has in not

afraid.

Eminems video also

used the idea of

Mackenzie facing the

back, this is making

the audienceunderstand that he

is the main

attraction and this

effect allows the

audience to have

sympathy for him.


5/9

Intertextual- the courteeners you overdid it doll

Here you can see The Courteeners you overdid it doll and our

music video. As you can see we have taken similar shots of

Mackenzie in our music video. The three performance shots aresimilar in shot, angle and distance, this is something we

subconsciously did, but yet was a good choice in camera angles.

This is developing the component of intertextual. The genre our

music video is under is indie music, we could of possible

challenged the shots, by having Mackenzie standing still in a

busy environment which is making the audience think more as wellas adding a effect.


6/9

Genre Identify- Narrative

As you can see Lily Allens version of Alfie is

narrating her relationship with her younger

brother Alfie.Camera-mid shots, close ups, static, long

shot

Editing-The editing consists of jump cuts, un

Mise-en-scene-Within the video you can see

colourful clothing and 2 people doing day today duties. This creates a homey atmosphere

which links back to narrative.

Sound- The sound is Lily Allen singing Alfie. It

is therefore diegetic sound, and the lyrics is

very specific which matches the mise-en-

scene.

All these aspects of media production help

portray narrative as it is varied, dynamic and

comical which is Lily Allens style of music.


7/9

Narrative-The Courteeners

Here is our narration of

our music video. We tookthe idea of Mackenzie

needing a minute on

his own so he had

people following him as

he knew he couldnt get

that.

Camera-long shots, midshots, close ups

Editing-rewinding

(speed), lighting,

brightness and contrast.

Mise-en-scene-walking in

a park, dark, errie,

normal clothing

Sound-so I cross my

heart song, diegetic

sound

All these pictures,

tell the story of

Mackenzie needing a

minute on his own.

However this wasnt as

clear as it could have

been, so this is

something we would

need to make a lot

clearer just like Lily

Allen did in her music

video.


8/9

Performance-

With Jessie Js song Do it like a dude, it is all

performance based .

Camera: the camera is mid-shot to extreme close

ups, and at a variety of different angles,

Mise-en-scene: Jessie J is dressed in urban clothes,

with quite a current feel to it. The lighting is dark with

just a white/daylight light as well.

Editing: the editing is shaky/steady cam, or smooth.

The angles are at a diagonal and are usually high or

low and never flat.

Sound: It is just Jessie J singing Do it like a Dude to

diegetic sound.


9/9

Our music video is half performance and half

narrative. Here are the shots of Mackenzie with

performance aspects.

Camera: The camera is at flat angle on all the

performance shots. They are also close-ups of

Mackenzie as well as a mid shot.

Mise-en-scene: The mise-en-scene is dark purple

colours to create a moody feel. Mackenzie is

wearing normal clothing, which are also dark.

Sound: The sound is diegetic as we made sure

Mackenzie could hear it during filming this was to

ensure good lip syncing.

Editing: The editing varies, we included fades

from colour to and from black and white, opposite

colours, dimness in tone. We also had to change

the brightness and contrast.

With both our video and Jessie Js video, there is

similarities. We both use close ups during the

performance part of the video, with using simple

angles and similar use of simple lighting. Both videos

are appropriate to their genre type.
