Missing Andy.


Missing Andy- The way we're made (made in england) was the music video i chose to analyse, there is many reasons why i choose this video, one of them is because it is different to the rest and theres not really any videos out there no a days that acutely mean anything big to the song they are singing thats why i liked this song.

General characteristics: This music video is good because it is showing what London is really like, and What people used and still do today, I really liked it when he was sitting in the cafe reading the news paper that it goes back to him as a child and explain what they used to get up to, this really reflected on the view that i have, because if they just played the song over something i really wouldn't of understood what they was trying to tell me other the video.

The relationship between lyrics and visuals was good because it was explain the story as it went along and i could relate to this more and felt like this was a good music video all because it went along with the lyrics and it was telling a story and i think that is the whole point of a music video, As it explained the story it also bought me into the lyrics more, and that was only because of the way they changed from the man to the young boy and they were wearing the same thing, and doing the same all the way through it, in till it gets to the middle of the song and you have to talk about growing up and doing thing differently like going to play football in the park with your mates, and having a BBQ in the park and also at the end having a ice cream sitting on the curb and when the car goes past it changes to a fag, this is good because it is showing to me that they have thought about it.

There is a few different shots of the two different people, and i think the different shots work because it shows you the boy and the man in london and what the area is like, and how much it hasn't changed through the years and it is still looking the same with the markets and things like that.

This music video is not performance based there is not no trained routines into it thats why i think it is good because it is different and normal, that is why i think it is better then all the knew pop music videos now that have all been edited and made look good.

Thats why i think that this is a good video and i would like to look at the rest of there videos.
