Research: Analysis of a great student video


I have decided to analyse a music video shot by Kudiwa, Demi, Ismail and Joseph. They decided to remake a music video for the song shot yourself in the foot again by example. I am going to analyse this music video in relation to Andrew Goodwin, Carol Vernallis and Laura Mulveys theories.

Lets take a look at the music video first

<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/32960698" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" webkitAllowFullScreen mozallowfullscreen allowFullScreen></iframe> <p><a href="http://vimeo.com/32960698">Kudiwa, Demi, Ismail, Joseph</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/candi1">283goswell</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p>

I feel that in this music video they use a variety of different shot types I felt the performance could have been a bit better as the main performer could have been more enthusiastic. There is a good use of editing to the beat and the usual rules of continuity editing are broken so that the users attention is drawn directly to the music video.
