Variations of music videos

Cold Play - Paradise:


This video is in the style of a narrative, in that it tells a story throughout, that reflects the lyrics of the song and its general meaning. I really like the idea of including a costume within the video as it adds to the entertaining value of the overall music video, for the audience. The idea of a journey is also portrayed within this music video, showing a wide amount of different settings, one of which is a train in which the majority of the audience are able to relate

Vampire Weekend - A Punk:



This music video is a very different style to the previous one as it doesn't tell a story, but in fact includes the band actually playing the song. The video appears to be all in one continuous take, which is not what we as a group are aiming for but the way in which the actions within the video match the beat of the song perfectly is an appealing factor of this particular video. The use of constantly popping in and out of the shots also adds to the entertaining factors of the overall music video.

Kina Grannis - In your Arms:


Finally, this music video is again completely different from the other two, in both the shooting and styling of it. Firstly this video is not in fact a video but picture on picture, shot frame by frame on top of jelly beans. This would be extremely difficult to achieve but the overall effect of the video is amazing, in my opinion. Its unique and an original video, which took over two years to produce, using around 288,000 jelly beans being used and a total of 2,460 different frames.
