Genre and narrative analysis of our media production.

Task
1. Analyse your thriller or music video for genre.


The audience can recognise various characteristics within our music video which represent the genre of the piece. Our narrative follows the love story- with a breakdown and resolution of the main character. There is also a tempo to the storyline that again reflects the genre. Our use of mise-en-scene was mainly reflected through our use of location and scenery. The opening shot of a lonely, breezy field instantly allows for interpretation of genre.

Recent music successes within the pre production of our music video focus mainly around the artists of Jack Johnson, James Blunt, Paolo Nutini, Jason Mraz- so the alternative acoustic genre was going through a popular phase within the music industry- reducing the extortionate financial risk we took with our video.

Genre functions as a language, and through using our music video we wanted to get a message across to the audience.
