Music Video Analysis






After analysing the music video I have found points in which I would love to use as inspiration but I need to stress the difference that I am intending to have for my own, individual version of the songs music video. Although I speak of the fact I enjoy the ending features of the "party" scene, my footage is from from the fantasy, magical dream-like world in which Florence is singing in. As well as this the video shows happiness and celebrations of what seems to be love. The whole music video seems to shows a "party" celebration with everyone. This could suggest the connection with the song title, "you got the love", the video shows everybody is happy and sharing their positive feelings with each other as they all have the love, and they all want to share it with one another.
With this taken into account, I would like to stray away from the idea of a celebration. I may include footage of a "party" like atmosphere but in a much more dramatic and sadden way as the celebration is going to be taken out in my version. The celebration of Love will not exist and the sadness of not feeling love or feeling as if the love is lost is going to replace the happiness.

  1. Lucy,
    This is a reasonable piece of textual analysis BUT it is doing little to make me feel better about my unease at the fact that your idea is worryingly similar to the original.
    I think that it is essential that you demonstrate how the idea for your own video is very DIFFERENT from the original, for example, perhaps the singer is actually very sad when seen singing the song. You need to think about this.
