The classroom scene is part and adds to the narrative of the video as it adds to the negativity of the characters life. These shots consisted of:
- Over the shoulder shot
- Shot from the front/Low Angle
- Shot from the side
- Panning of the setting
- From the teachers point of view
Over the shoulder shot
This shot allows the audience to see what the character is writing, which highlights their frustration as they write the lyrics/title of the song down in anger. We purposely chose to write in red ink as this codes the anger the individual is feeling, and it is a conventional colour of the music genre rock.
Over the shoulder shots are frequently used in music videos and in films as they give the audience the idea of being involved and watching the action occurring.
Shot from the Front/Low angle
Low angle shots are used frequently in music videos, this reminds the audience that they are watching a show/performance. Also by using this low angle shot allows the audience to see the characters facial expressions.
When filming, shown in the first and second video, we had some mistakes. Firstly Elliot was so eager to be in the film scene that he made a suprise appearance in two of them. Also in the second video Faye wanted to show off her amazing throwing skills and knocked Jamie (the camera man) out with the ball of paper.
Shot from the side
We like the idea of this shot, as it reflects that no one is surrounding her emphasising that she is alone. Also in this shot it clearly shows the action and emotions of the character.
Shot from the front/High Angle
This shot is slightly high angle, this gives the sense that someone is watching her every move and judging her.
Teachers Shot
By filming from this angle is reflects that she is in a classroom and also from this perspective puts the audience in a point of view, which can create empathy as we watch this character.
