SLAVES // HOWS AMELIA?
- “London” is the first word heard and it is screamed – immediately setting the scene for rebellious city boys.
- The genre of punk revival to a degree loads the sound with images of fashion and a lack of care for authority.
- Rioting on a small degree.
- Aggressive behaviour and vandalising activities.
- This could be interesting to explore as the band is two young males from around similar parts to us.
- However, the fact it has these connotations of young males that are part of a subculture correlated with disregard for social harmony may pose an issue – as activities carried out in the video could well be disruptive and/or illegal.
CHET FAKER // GOLD (FLUME REWORK)
- Distant and action not directly related.
-
Isolated character lip syncing.
- Beach setting? Standing in the shore as the tides come in, bright day time.
- Then when chorus drops female character introduced.
- Solo character becomes part of a group of friends that grows throughout video.
- Intercut with action of a party later that night when all is dark and neon lighted.
- Essentially narrative of a forlorn man on an isolated beach in the day appears lonely, but then more and more characters are introduced and the narrative shows a progression into a party at the same scene just not in chronological order.
SBTRKT FT RAURY // HIGHER
- Sound effects at beginning set scene of dusk in countryside/forest area feel.
- Fast paced and in depth lyrics - narrative is clear and story is told.
- Not many characters - perhaps only following a single character.
- Mainly filmed on handicam.
- Mainly close up shots of protagonist - main focus.
- Fairly dark aesthetic.
- Slows at end - could be cut at around 3:30.
- Chorus provides opportunity for lip syncing and performing.
- More narrative based in verse, with a little lip syncing perhaps.
