20 music videos review

20 Music Video Review Hannah Lortie

Uncover Zara Larsson

This video appealed to me because it included the types of costumes I want to use in my video and the time of year it was filmed is similar to when I would like to film.

Hurt Christina Aguilera

This video gave me different ideas of camera shots I can use that capture the emotion of the actor, the costumes and the locations. I also like the narrative of having someone there to help.

If I were a boy Beyonc

The storyline from this video is has allowed me to look at my own storyline and look for the gaps where I can make it flow better and intrigue the target audience a little bit more.

Bound to You Christina Aguilera

This video also helped me to develop my storyline, it gave me the initial idea for my music video as I had watched it beforehand.

Unfaithful Rihanna

I enjoyed watching this video because it has a good storyline and the camera angles used capture all of Rihannas emotion. This video gave me the idea to include the girls personal insecurities in my narrative.

Human Christina Perri

I like the variety of shots used and the way the lighting has been set throughout the song. I also like how the video doesnt just show a typical female, when the lighting changes parts of her body turn to an x-ray image, showing her vulnerability.

Yellow Coldplay

This video gave me the idea to use a dull outside setting, it is also the reason I have chosen a long stretch of road or park to be my location.

Youre Beautiful James Blunt

The idea to use an outside location also came from this video, I like the way the angles capture the feelings of the artist, just like the weather does.

A Thousand Years Christina Perri

Within this video I like how the shots fade into each other ad the lighting used at the end from the natural sunset lighting. From watching this video I have decided to look at using the natural sunlight.

Diamonds Rihanna

This video gave me a few ideas of how I could use close-ups in my video and a few other shots, such as wide and mid shots. I also like the mixture of the video, how the cuts are very smooth between the narrative and the performance.

Hello Adele

This video has inspired me to use different coloured affects on my video when editing, I could use a grungy sort of green look like they do in this video or maybe black and white. I also like the narrative and how it starts.

Marvin Gaye Charlie Puth ft. Meghan Trainor

I like how the narrative of this video, the lighting used and the decorations used as part of the set.

Havana Camila Cabello ft. Young Thug

I like how this video strips back to the artists culture as she is from an Hispanic background and including a Tele-novella is including her culture. I also like the lighting used in the video and it complements the colours of the costumes.

New Rules Dua Lipa

I like this video because the narrative is relatable to the artists viewers. I especially like the video shot used in the video and I will try find a way to include this in my video, I also like the costumes worn.

Perfect Ed Sheeran

From watching this video I have enjoyed the narrative and how it links to the song. I like the lights used on the bottom of the skies used when it is darkness and they are gliding down the slope.

What About Us - Pink

I enjoyed the narrative of this video and how it included a lot of problems for many people. I also like the dance piece when the singing starts. I would like to use this in my video but it would not fit with my narrative.

Dusk Till Dawn ZAYN ft. Sia

I like how the lighting was used in this video along with the Dragon dance included from the Chinese culture. I also like the use of Product placement from Jaguar cars as it fits in with the narrative instead of looking out of place.

Sorry Not Sorry Demi Lovato

I like how this video includes real images from a genuine party as well as staged scenes. The colours used are very suited to the genre and compliment the party vibes, as do the costumes.

Most Girls Hailee Steinfield

I like the narrative of this video and the camera shots used. This video has given me some inspiration on the kind of make up and hair styles I want my actors to have.

Theres Nothing Holding Me Back Shawn Mendes

I like the shots and the sounds used to start the video because the music even starts. I also like the use of the natural daylight and outside locations instead of studios.
