4. In this transition the camera
takes advantage of the glare
from a light to cut out the
picture and then dim into the
next shot. I think this is an
original and artistic way to use a
transition and gives more drama
and effect than a basic cut
transition would.
5. In this shot the camera shows an extreme closeup of the
chess board two people are playing on. It has used an
extreme close up to show that the board and it’s pieces
are shaking, from tremors in the floor. This is a good
example of an extreme closeup as it has been specifically
used to show the shaking object in more detail. Extreme
closeup’s are not the best shot to use and should have a
specific reason for showing the shot in so much detail.
6. In this shot the camera pans over the side of
the aircraft up to the top looking down at it.
This enables us to see that the aircraft is in the
shape of the take that logo. I think this has
been put in place to promote the artists and
refer to them throughout the video. I like this
example as it is original and shows how you
can shoot an object from multiple views.
7. I like the way they have
used this tracking shot
as it feels suitable for
the scene. Tracking
shots are more
advanced and more
interesting shots to use
as the camera view
moves. They perform

positioned behind some boxes to show a better, more
dominant view of the artist. This shot shows more of
the old rooms surroundings and gives a better look at
what the artist is doing by shooting from a side angle. I
also shows artists costume and other finer details.
8. In this shot the camera zooms in on a boy watching
a kids sci-fi cartoon on the television. This directly
relates to the title of the song showing a child and a
children’s cartoon. It also refers the sci-fi theme
that takes place throughout the video. I think this is
a good establishing shot to use as in introduces you
to the theme of the video going to be used.
9. Lyrics:
Out on the streets tonight,
There making peace tonight,
There making peace-
In this scene the lyrics are about making peace on the streets. The visuals
on the video reinforce this as it shows a boy pushing through the wall of
armed police aiming at the artist to get a photo of them. At which he is
extremely pleased. This makes the scene very moving and makes the
lyrics more dramatic to the audience, focusing their attention on the
words used. This type of shot consists with Goodwins theory of six when
the lyrics reinforce the visuals of the shot.
10. I think this panning shot used is rather interesting as it
reinforces the beat of the song. It does this by showing
an army marching in sync with the clapping beat of the
song. I like that they have used a shot to refer to the beat
of the song as no lyrics are used throughout this part.

13. In this transition special effects have
been used to make the video roll
through the different shots, similar to a
film rolling through a projector. It is
continuously flowing without any cuts
to separate the shots. I think this is an
interesting transition to use as it is
original and dramatic, referring to the
mysterious and dramatic feel of the
video.
