Reviewing student video

My favourite student video is...
(password - student)





Split screen editing and text
I believe this is a great video as it has many great aspects, such as it's editing, camera work and lip sync. The video uses a lot of edits which relates to Vernallis's theory, edits include the use of swipes, split screens and green screen. These edits often relate to the lyrics of the song, such as the use of text at the lyrics "die", "fail" and "live". This relates to Andrew Goodwin's theory and is a form of illustration. The video does not have a storyline to it but the singer uses lip sync at all times, the camera work keeps this interesting as they use the shadow of the singer in some scenes. The video is also kept interesting through the use of mise-en-scene, the video is shot in a number of locations which include a park, stage and house.
