Analysis of previous student work.

Last year this music video was made by a group of students at Coombe. The song is by Joshua Radin and the song is called 'One of Those Day's'

The opening shot is very strong, it is the close up of the main actors eyes and then it quickly cuts away to a mid shot of his hands and the guitar. The shots are very dominant because of the way it has been edited. The shots appear very fast and are different. Then when you see the shots of the rain this feel the sense of the genre. Although using letters in music video is a common thing, in this it is done very well, the appear on screen just as they are spoken and they are in a very good font that attracts good attention. However the lip syncing has not been done so great which slightly puts the viewer off. The fact that in the music video there is more than one individual, it becomes more interesting and you want to carry on watching to see what more may appear. Each shot has been done very clearly, there is nothing that is out of place and it has all been put together very neatly. The shots of firework have been done very well, they have an establishing shot as well as a close up. The shots are great of all the people that are in it, it is different to have so many people appear in one music video but it is also good. And the ending of the music video is very good where they end in slow motion of him playing the guitar and it blacks out after.
