As a group we researched and found three music videos that we think carry out the same or similar narrative within the lyrics. We decided that it would be good to look at and analyse these, as we wanted to see the various ways in which elements are put across by different people, and if they have linked this with the music in the song, if so, how?
The three videos we found were:
The Verve: Drugs Don't Work
The Streets: Blinded by the Lights
Prodigy: Smack My Bitch Up
I have decided to look at these videos in further detail, as when looking closely at the lyrics in our chosen story, I found that they could have a double meaning, and I think that this is fully related to the use of drugs, as are the three songs above. The reason that I want to analyse these videos is that I would like to see how each director uses camera and editing to fit with the narrative, music and meaning, and also see how they use mise en scene, lighting and setting.
I think that I will benefit from this as it will expand my view of these sircumstances, and then when I have seen this situation in many other points of view I can go on to create my own new ideas and use these effectively in my own music video.
