Analysis of Rock music 1

This is a good example of rock music. It is filmed in black and white which gives it a 'rock music' type of effect as black is normally associated with rock. The shots are quick and change very frequently, lip syncing isnt used as much in this and shows more shots of them out of action and talking to the camera. The location doesnt really change and is situated on a stage or in the crowd, this may cause viewer fatigue from the video but the song is very upbeat and loud which may reduce the viewer fatigue.

Cinematography
In this video the shots mainly consist of long shots of the singers on stage, and close ups of their faces. The variety between the two make the video very interesting as your not just seeing one shot type all the time, also the shot angles vary from high angle to low angle which works well with the type of shot and creates a piece of footage and goes well with whats happening within the video.

Mise en scene

This video seems to be located mainly on stage where the band are preparing for a gig or music event. Most of them are wearing black leather jackets and tight jeans which works well as they look like a group rather than all wearing different outfits and types of clothing. Also they all have long hair and some sort of jewellery whether it be piercings, necklaces or chains hanging from their clothes, again representing and illustrating the conventions of a typical rock band.

Editing

The length of shots in this video vary from very short to fairly long and as it is almost like a documentary of them before the gig starts, sometimes it seems like it isnt in time and isnt really going along with the music in the video. However the length and variety of shots creates a good video because it isnt all the same and like a rock video a lot of it is very manic and random.

Sound
The sound in  this video is very upbeat. Being a rock song the music is normally loud and has a lot of screaming and loud noises in it. most of the sound in this video is dialogue apart from when it shows them getting ready for the gig and the lyrics are sung over it.
