Lens: Moving Image Research

Music Video Research



Music Artist: Big Bang
Title: Bad Boy
Year: 2012

In this Music video it starts off with 2 members walking around in New York apologising to a girl who is assumed to be his ex, then a cut scene where the other three members are seen doing the same thing. To be honest I wasn't really interested in how the video was shot, I noticed that low shots were used regally as well as dolly zoom on the members.

Title: Wolf
Year: 2013
Music Artist: EXO

In the music video I found it both interesting yet very exciting, the way the film has been edited is my main interest since they seem to bring the video out, there a few scene where a few of the members change into wolves then back in to human form again.







There also one scene where a member jumps up and claws towards the screen.


The use of lighting also helps with setting a mood to the video, In the dark you see the the silhouettes of the group creating a mysterious vibe.

Title: CROOKED
Music Artist: G-Dragon
Year: 2013

Throughout this film the camera is following the singer, G-Dragon(GD) around. It starts off with the camera filming GD from behind as he walks, cut scenes are then used showing different versions. As he begins to run the camera is still following, but instead of a smooth shot of him running, the camera is shaking around which is known as a jogging. I think all cut scenes and jogging seemed to fit with the song, after reading the lyrics. 

I find the jogging seems to work really well in this film and would like to try it out for an experiment in my further films.

Title: Growl
Music Artist: EXO
Year: 2013

I found this music video interesting was the movement of the camera, not to mention this whole dance was film in one go, how the person filming this managed to film each member of the group with out any mistakes by both the group and camera man.

Title: Smack My Bitch Up
Music Artist: The Prodigy
Artist: Jonas Akerlund 
Year: November 1997


What I found interesting about this music video was how the camera was used to be the person, who was the main character, showing us the routine of this person, then finally revealing the person at the end.
