Textual analysis of Exmaple Changed The Way You Kissed Me

I chose Example Changed The Way You Kissed Me because Example Say nothing is the video is the video I am creating. It is in the same genre as Say Nothing which is dance-pop music.

The establishing shot is medium shot showing us that Example who is positioned to the right of the shot is in a bathroom and is looking nervous/anxious. His nervousness/anxiousness is also so emphasised by the black and white. The next shot is of running water in a sink that has been slowed down it then straight cuts to a medium over the shoulder over a transparent Example looking in the mirror that could be showing how he is feeling. The camera then focus pushes cutting to an over the shoulder close up again of Example in the mirror but not transparent this time. The next shot is a close up of his hands in the sink with water running through them. The next two shot are close ups of Example in the mirror and just in the right hand side of the frame giving a double movement effect. There is bird’s eye view of a crowd dancing cutting to him shaving then into a car on a journey somewhere as the lyrics tell us. As Example walks out the door the editing is then to the beat because as the door closes the beat comes through it also cuts and this point to a long shot of Example on a stage and lots of people down below dancing. There is then lots of close ups of different people dancing and of Example singing. There are lots of bird’s eye views of the crowds and of Example when he crowd surfs along with lots of tracking shots. There are lots of points where the film is slowed down and is not the speed of the beat.
