Bat For Lashes- Daniel video



Mise en scene:

- High key backlights and spot lights used.
-Dressed casually.
-Burned things such as toys.
-People dressed in black but costumes are distorted and creative.
-Strange make up. Her make up looks like obvious tears.
-Dance routine is shown around lead singer.
- She is being touched alot which is evading her personal space.

Editing:

-Sped up scenes used to give a sensitive atmosphere and make viewers look again.
-Slow motion scenes to catch audience out and look surreal and creepy.

Camera angles and movement:

-Close ups used on her face so we can recognise her as the singer and her make up.
-Slow zoom out so we can gain perspective and be more aware of surroundings as time goes on through the video.
-Low angles are used to she her legs as she struggles and as she is picked up.
-Long shots are used to make the room she is in look bigger.
-High angles are used as we look down on her to make her seem vunerable and weak.
-Mid close ups are used to show her body and and her face in decent detail.
- Tilt shots are also used down her legs and as she walks down the room so we can follow her.

I like this video as it shows her discomfort well in the video buy using the camera angles and movement they have and the shots and scenes they have used. Also i like how fire and toys were represented as it shows a slight narrative to the story and gets audiences thinking about what happened. Also the video does not look too technical and yet we see the idea of the characters and setting is creative making up for the lack of digital effects.
