Analysis




This is the video to "Sorry Your'e Not A Winner" the video is filmed in a small room full of fans, this is to show that the band are not too big to be shown with their fans face to face. This in turn makes the band seem more friendly and down to earth even though their music is very unique and vibrant. The use of strobe lights and the the extras dancing and moshing represents the band's style very well.

Lyrics:

Scratch card glory or waist low pleasure?
Black eyes nose bleeds don’t look back now
My white abode do you remember?
My white abode do you remember?
But it’s such a thrill to find out...

Sorry you’re not a winner
With the air so cold and a mind so bitter
What have you got to lose
But false intentions and a life so pretentious?

Scratch card glory or waist low pleasure?
Black eyes nose bleeds don’t look back now
My white abode do you remember?
My white abode do you remember?
But it’s such a thrill to find out...

Sorry you’re not a winner
With the air so cold and a mind so bitter
What have you got to lose
But false intentions and a life so pretentious?

Scratch card glory or waist low pleasure?
Black eyes nose bleeds don’t look back now
My white abode do you remember?
I sweat I ache...

Sorry you’re not a winner
With the air so cold and a mind so bitter
What have you got to lose
But false intentions and a life so pretentious?

What?-What?-What?
Rawwwr

Bullet for my valentine

Bullet for my valentine are a heavy metal band from wales in the UK









This is the video for "Waking The Demon" the video's story follows a teenage boy being bullied in highschool. This yet again appeals to BFMV's teenage audience, as people are more lickely to take an interest in something they can relate to. Stereo typically the bullies are dressed in the latest clothes, are what you could consider good looking and are physically imposing to look at. This contrasts with the tormented boy as he is rather small in stature, and dresses alternatively to the bullyies. Ironically the boy turns out to be a werewolf. This could metaphorically suggests that through the boys pain ,anger and hatred he has overcome their actions and words, gaining power and superiority.This is ironic as it is everything the bullies tried to take away from him, his confidence, his pride and power.

























The variouse posters from BFMV consist of dark contrasting colours and cartoons of dark yet stylish nature. This further represents their style of music as it focuses heavily on emotional pain experienced by young individuals. These emotions could be anything from anger to frustration even sadness and this is heavily refelected in the image and colours they use, for example guns, blood etcetera.

In the video "Young"

Monday, 21 September 2009

My video will show a young man leaving home and pursuing a career simply for financial purposes. All throughout the video he will be haunted with flashbacks of his childhood and people that he misses. My video will use alot of the conventional shots for example mid close ups, FPV shot etcetera. The main character of my video will be a friend of mine called Daniel, in the video he will be wearing a business type suite. The song i have chose is by a band calles white lies and is called farewell to the fairground, In one part of the song it sings "Keep on running keep keep on running theres no place like home theres no place like home" at this point Dan will rip his tie off and start to run at speed back to his family and town. The very end shot will be an over the shoulder view of Dan at the front door of his house, smiling at the person in front.

Madina lake

Madina lake are an alternative rock band from chicago illinois USA














This is the album "From them. through us. to you"











The basic story of the video is a young couple that have fell upon hard times and sadly broken up. The particular theme shown throughout the video is life moving on and the old being forgotten. The young man is shown to be replaced and erased form this women's life by images such as him fading out of photos and being replaced by another man. This also happens at a wedding scene. If you watch the video yourself you will see that when the couple are standing in front of a tree their initials fade as they move on and time passes.
