Music Videos






Lady GaGa – Bad Romance NARRATIVE BASED

The colours mainly used in this music video is red and white. They are contrasting colours, when she is dressed in white with a pale background she looks innocent and pure. When she is dressed in red with a dark background she gives off connotations of a firey anamalistic sex appeal. She gives direct adress in particular when she looks like this.

Lights flash and cut to the beat of the music deliertly.

story.. man buys her

product placement..vodka

editing follows softer beats, this makes it not so harsh or fast.

editing shown clearly is her eyes are made bigger.






Green Day – American Idiot PERFORMANCE BASED

This music video is at a constant fast pace, giving an image of total chaos.
There is a massive open space

unusual shots

movement speed- all three at different speeds at the same time, one will be sped up, another will be slowed down and the last will be normal.

american flag melting in the background pouring out with green liquid is a symobol of america, green-rotten destroying the flag- corrupt of the country.

green and black.







OK-Go – Here it Goes Again CONCEPT BASED (2, 975,789 views on utube)

8 tredmills
doesnt tell a story- very abstract
lipsincing movements to the beat of the music.
very simple but very effective
clothing very vibrant against the dull background.
