This type of narrative will attract a female audience as they will be more likely to relate to this type of narrative; they can connect with the artist. Style and length of editing Half way through the music video there is a fade-in of a medium shot of Florence standing in bushes.
These shots of the bushes are cross-cutted as shots of her in the mirrored box room show. This creates a manic atmosphere with the fast editing as the repetition of the artist to be stuck in a continuous cycle of pain, searching for love.
This will help me in the making of my music video as I can use different types of editing styles to present a type of emotion such as love or anger.
This can help me in my planning of music video because I can Mise en Scene get ideas of what types of outfits to give the female character in our music video. The light bulb. At the beginning and end of the song, the light bulb flashes in the same beat of the song. The song begins and ends with the noise similar to a heart beat.
This makes it seem like the light bulb is generating music. This mise en scene of the rings on her fingers suggests this artist and music video is Indie.
The unusual style of the rings; two pendant rings with queens head on them- this could be a fashion statement. The red nail varnish goes with the red colours in the mise en scene.
This may have been used to show her genre of music. The red autumn leaves. The colour matches her hair. As she is walking through moving the leaves we see her wearing a white shirt with a black bow- tie. This contrasts her background and the leaves. This may have been used to make her more noticeable in the video.
The clothing is similar to alternative rock; the tie. This is stereotypically seen as male clothing. Later on in the music video, leaves and glitter get flown in the air; this is like a celebration of all her emotions and the fairytale ending shoe could be getting in her song.
Glitter also represents the genre through the connotations of fun, happiness and represents feminity. Locations This first location is in a forest while the second is in a room surrounded by mirrors. This is not a location that the audience will aspire to. This would make this artist ordinary as the audience will be familiar with this location and not aspire to it. The star is simultaneously ordinary and extra ordinary.
This will help me in the making of my music video as I will include at least one of these paradoxes that will cause the audience to feel like they can relate to the artist due to their location. Star development The first image is from her first music video while the second is from one of her latest. From these two images you can see that Florence and the Machine has developed due to media such as lighting and mise en scene. The quality of the second image looks more professional due to the lighting; this can help me in the planning of my music video as I can try and improve the quality by using better quality such as high-key lighting.
This shots are useful as it helps the audience to recognize her more. The close up will help identify her face while the mid shot does the same will shows us her outfits and actions. This will help us in our music video as this will be our first music video we need our artist to be recognized.
This close ups and mid shots will help use do this. Characters The only character in this music video is the artist herself Florence. Having only the artists in the music video is useful as there will be no distractions and the audience will notice them more. So it will be useful for me to include the artists alone because being new artists, they need the full attention. Colour and lighting Comparing the first two pictures, the background becomes lighter and softer. In the left-bottom image, Florence is wearing black which contrasts with the warm colours in he reflections.
Whereas the JLS boys can't belt a pair of trousers, can't write a decent song amongst the four of them, but they can rely on studio trickery Then they boast "we were on X Factor for ten whole weeks so it's not like we can't sing". Just get out. Fraser, this is a five star song, JLS' is a one star song, which is the consensus of most people who've heard it. Complain about this comment Comment number 8. JLS 5-star?
THIS 3-star? Well well well Best song on the album. To be honest, she didn't really NEED to release another single, but this will do the album good non the less like Turn It Up did for Pixie Lott we'll see the album reach the top 10 again no doubt. Complain about this comment Comment number 9.
Has anyone heard Strangeness And Charm? She's performing it a lot at live shows and at Glastonbury and it will most likely appear on Florence's next album. It sounds epic even live so I can't wait to hear the studio recording.
Complain about this comment Comment number Next album sounds like it will be a much darker experience. She claims the next album's theme will be and I quote "a crystal themed album". She keeps changing what the album is going to be about! She said its going to be about science, then chemical science I know but its more specific and now crystals.
I think we can draw to the conclusion however it will be verrryy different to 'Lungs'. Florence and the Machine - "Cosmic Love " Some albums contain songs that just cry out to be released as singles , and this is one of them! A powerful track full of emotion that can evoke a feeling of thunder in the heart for the listener. A vocal tour de force that grabs at the senses just like an angel plucks a harp. Evoking the talented spirits of Bat For Lashes and the wonderful Kate Bush , this really is a song that can make a fan fall totally in love with the skills of an artist , and cause them to buy an album just on the power of one song.
The instrumentation is married to the voice and melody perfectly. Mesmerising and hypnotic in equal measure. Superb stuff! Wel its not in the Top 40! Oh well, thats what you get for not releasing this instead of dog days florence!
Oh trust me, this beauty will be getting nowhere near the Top It's downloads put it at Oh well, its her own fault. And I'm glad this songs been kept as a Florence lover secret anyway! The fact it got to number 3 in Ireland should make up for its low UK ranking anyway. If its at now, it'll defiantly hit the top ! Me thinks about ish. This entry is now closed for comments.
