Favourite Music Videos

Rude Boy Music Video 


Reasons why I like this video:

• The colours are very vibrant, eye catching and bright- attractive.
• The colours chosen are representative of the Jamaican flag 
• The movement of the video goes with the beat of the song
• The choices of imagery goes well with the choice of the song
• I like the make up and costume choices as it connects with the theme of the song and the background colours and images. 
• The costumes are very stylish and modern
• Some of the lyrics of the song appear in the video which help to tie in the audio aspects with the visual aspects
• The dancing fits with the beat of the song and makes you want to join in
• I also like this type of music because of its fast up tempo beat

Mr Brightside Music Video


Reasons why I like this video:

• The music video is very theatrical and this holds the audiences interest and attention
• The make up and costume links with the genre of the song. Most of the people in the video have pale make up on which makes their eyes and costume stand out.
• The video is set out and staged like a drama performance-everything has its own position 
• The odd choice of props makes the video look more surreal- for example the birds in the sky
• The main colour used in the video is red- this has a warm tone
• Most of costumes worn by the people in the video are very extreme 
• The movement of the video goes with the beat of the song-very fast and jump cuts

Drunk Music Video


Reasons why I like this video:

• The theme of the music video is approriate to the song-him drinking alcohol
• The cat in the video is comedic but also has a serious message
• The video is mostly set in a pub which links to the song-appropriate and relevant
• The subtext helps the narrative and helps to tell story
