Detailed music video analysis
For this task I had to choose a song and do an in depth analysis of it and how its features of Mise En-Scene, Camera, Editing, Narrative and structure help to convey the themes its trying to portray.
Here is my analysis of the song “The Pretender” by Foo Fighters.
I think this task was very useful as it has helped me to identify the features which make up music videos and how they are used in order to effectively convey a theme and narrative. This task has helped me think of ways in which I can convey themes within my own music video and it has helped me understand how to utilize different shots and editing styles to convey a mood.
