Fall Out Boys - Thanks For The Memories Video


This music video is a Amplification as its a simple video of the band performing but they use other scene through out the video to give it more variety. The narrative isn't simply illustrated in the video by using just the lyrics and sound they also amplify the creative interpretation using unusual ideas for example they use extras in the music video but they aren't people as such, they decide to use griller's to connect with the song and get the audience's attention. The direct link through this song is the beat as it stands out and brings the video together. This narrative is suggestive as it makes the viewers want to watch it over and over again as it is different and unique to other music videos. It also describes the bands music genre as they use many loud beat styles in there songs and extreme videos that will get the attention of the audience.It has a dominant music arrangement that gets the over all mood of the video which is the beat that gets that rock, blues kind of feeling across to the audience and they show this off by recording the drum beats and the style of guitar being used. The performance of the video is shown to be using lip sync that use close ups, mimed playing of the guitar and other instruments, using different camera shots and angles to get the feeling of the video caught in shots like sweeping crane and mid shot. The shots jump from long shots to mid shots to close ups to get the whole band in the shot and individual moves to capture the shot they want. Other movement shots like fast dolly to get movement of the characters into one shot as well as crane shot of over head to get the whole set into one shot. They use editing to go from one scene to another for example the band performing on the stage then to back stage seeing what happens behind the scenes. The shots are put together quickly and to sync with the song using only a few different locations. The lighting used is bright and stands out behind them, flashing and over head on there face to see there expressions better.The overall Mise-en-scene is the blues style of music video.
