Editing Music Video (1st Scene)



The next cut breaks out of slow motion after the two characters are introduced. Like the typical conventions of this genre the rappers are rapping to the camera with handheld camera motion. This then goes on for a while as the song gets started.



I have then added fade cuts between shots which are used a lot in my genre.



I then have a few different shots of the two artists driving in the car 'reminiscing' about the life on their streets in order to add depth to the music video within the first scene.

Intertextuality in Shrek (Example)

Image
Intertextuality is the relationship between texts. It is the idea that all media texts reference one another in one way or another. for example in Shrek there is a lot of itertextuality showing that intertextuality doesn't just have to be with literal 'texts' it cam be in any form of media.   We can clearly see the intertextuality in this video as this scene is almost made from intertextuality.   The first part of the intertextuality is with the three blind mice. When we see them we remember the nursery rhyme that we sang when we were younger. This is then interrupted by the seven dwarfs pushing snow white onto the table. This reminds the audience of the original text where they were told about the story of snow white and the seven dwarfs.  The next part that we see of this intertextuality is when Shrek goes to the bed and the wolf is in the bed. This references the story of little red riding hood and the wolf that replaced her grandma in the bed, reminding us of t...

The artist of this song, (kanye and jamie) has a very specific appearance. the image that they are showing for this video is that they are both very rich powerful men with the all while that they are wearing alongside their jewelry. this allows the audience to look up to them as a role model.

Mise en scene in Nelly - Dilemma ft. Kelly Rowland

Image
The mise en scene in this music video is close to the kind of mise en scene that I want in my music video, also it is the easiest type of mise en scene as I have all the resources in order to master it. This mise en scene is mainly just a regular town. I have chosen to study this mise en scene because my song is about the hood and what bad things happen within it. This song shows what an American hood will look like. Lighting It seems as if the music video is using natural daylight lighting, there could be minimal soft light when the artists are in shade. At night there is more low key lighting. This lighting is more angled and hard light directed towards the focus of the shot. In this music video lighting isn't really used as much as it could have been. Scenery Everything physical within the scene is very middle class, not very rich but not very poor, so it relates to the majority of people. They are trying to put across a normal urban environment where the two protagonist...
