Evaluation Video One - The Script - If You Ever Come Back
The very first piece of footage shownn is of a close up of a girl who looks as though she is sad which fits the representation of the sub genre that I produced originaly. It then moves onto an establishing shot with the an underground sign of 'West Acton'.
The next shot used of an effective tracking shot of the band. The band are wearing dark clothes that looks 'Smart-Casual'. I believe that this is representative of the meaning of the song and represents the sadness throughout the song.
The next effective shot is of a girl on a platform watching the train go past her. This links up with the lyrics 'but you can't step on the train'. The music video uses parralel editing to draw a story whilst also showing the band sing/playing the song.
The video uses some obscure shots of things such as close-ups of her hair, lips, a boiling pot and a cat. I believe these shots are effective as they represent different parts of the song whilst also intrueging the audience. Another effect used is shallow focus which is used on some shot showing sun shining through and blurs the character out.
The song does not use many bright colours. Most of the colours used are of of dark gloomy colours such as browns and blacks. This includes the lighting used. The lighting is all dark apart from one scene that has snow which I believe is there to represent the purity of the girl actor.
