music videos- music language

 notes:

- prioritise performance, fans need to have the feel of authentication. we need to know they can really be believable and do this

- close-ups will deliver this to us

-close ups on the performers hands as well to show them playing the instrument 

- lip syncing to the camera for performers

wheetus- arc pans camera shots- to show they're a group to show how they are all playing together- dynamic gelled group working together. 

star is also prioritised/ privileged in the frame- as much air time as the story. shows their importance 


genre: 

avril: PUNK. you would find: low-level lighting, de-saturated colour and lighting, inner city grunge look, realistic, no fantasy, 

tagging: start to show everyone, spray painting

baggy clothes, bracelets, cap, metal accessories, thick eyeliner, skateboards used

the camera is hand-held documentary style, always on the move- a lot of editing, doing things her way, tracking shots


wheetus: saturated colours, fantasy, bright colours and lighting, 

wearing checked shirt, frilled evening suit, cool guys can afford branding clothing, identical, sports clothing, 

main boy rides bicycle and it gets run over by mean boys 

camera very steady, cuts in measured in a steady balanced way


lyrics deliver the story as well as the video in both music videos
