Other Students Music Video's

Daniel Cope - I'll Show You New York (G324)



Throughout the video, the main narrative/theme was based upon a couples relationship and the time they spend together. There were a few shots of performance when the guy was playing guitar and singing along with the song, but I don't believe this worked very well with the rest of the video as the lip syncing wasn't very good and there was only a tiny section of performance compared to the amount of narrative used. 


There were a range of camera angles used. I believe the close ups of the actors faces worked well as it showed the emotion on their faces showing how happy and in love they were with each other and how the time they spent together made them feel happy and relaxed. I also believe the sped up shot of the high street worked well as it showed time passing, but was also shot well and worked with the narrative.The black and white effect at the start of the video worked well as it showed that this moment was in the past, when the couple first got together. I also believe the close up shot of the couple holding hands was effective as it symbolized them being together in a relationship. 


There were no titles present throughout the video, which I believe there could be more added to it, perhaps near the end. At the start of the video, before the music played, there was non diegetic sound of a train passing, connoting that the male character was at a station waiting for a train. Also, near the end of the video, diegetic sound of the high street can be heard, connoting the male character has fallen back into the real world and has to deal with his problems without his partner.
