Throughout the next four weeks i will be watching many different music videos to get ideas and find out what makes a good music video to plan for my own video. Today i have looked at the music video Arctic Monkeys - R U Mine
This is one of my favourite arctic monkey videos they have produced due to its simplicity and effectiveness. The whole video is in black and white for a classic feel. The whole song is filmed inside a car with alex and his drummer singing along to the song, it has no true narrative.The final shots of the scene introduce the rest of the band into the video showing them as a group. The editing between shots is very well done and as a audience you don't really notice them until you view it in depth. The video shows the band playing around in a car, again, with Alex Turner showcasing his prowl as a front man. Air guitar and drums included, the offering features the expected girls in masquerade masks and a live performance at the end.
If i was to do this video i would use the band in the whole of the video and not in the last few shots of it, i would also decide to make it a narrative with the lead singer singing the words in sync with the music. I would maybe set it in a bar and focus on alex turner and connote that he is singing about a woman.
This is a minimal graded piece of work which has failed to meet any of the criteria by which to score at A level. You need to make sure you are using images to support your work as it will meet the criteria of making the blog engaging and your use of ICT mark. This work does not show that you have thought about the question or engaged with the task.
ReplyDeleteJacob, you are missing lots of tasks from your blog - not acceptable!
ReplyDeleteYour time management is very poor and will be reflected in your marks, as you are marked on this also. You need to be contributing more blog posts each week, the tasks set in lesson then an independent study post to reflect your independent study – this will then reflect your grade and the show you understand the required levels of work at A-level.
You have had numerous lessons to update and improve this, as well as completing the more recent tasks that I have set. You have had plenty of time to ask for support from your peers and teachers, which you have not used wisely.
Your target is a B - the work you have completed so far is currently acceptable, but with the missing work you are currently FAILING the course.
You need to alter your work ethic and start to act like an A-Level student.
