The Script - The Man Who Cant Be Moved Video


This is a Amplification music video as he uses performance and narrative in the video to get the story of the song across to the audience. They focus on the lyrics in the video and making sure they are heard as well as making sure the creative interpretation of the video goes with the song which best describes it. The direct link to this song is the lyrics and the song title as it explains the whole reason to the video. The narrative to the video is loose as it is based on a romantic story of a man who cant be moved till he finds the girl he was looking for and this is shown through the video which connects to other people that makes it interesting to watch. The dominant musical arrangement which sets the overall mood in the video is the guitar as it starts with it on its own and carries on as the main instrument. The script is a band but in this video it mainly shows Danny as his the lead singer, it shows him performing throughout the video and shows him lip sync also using the band members showing them playing there instruments and using camera shots and angles to get the best shots. Danny has became part of the narrative story which means he is acting as narrator and participating in the song at the same time. The camera shots used jump between long shots, close ups and extreme close ups  in the video showing different emotions and different scenes. The close up shot is used the most on singers faces to get the expressions across. The camera movement used dolly track which follows him walking down the street. The editing jumps from location to person singing then to the band playing together and changes to the beat as at the chorus it gets more up beat and faster. The lighting is the key feature in the video to express  how that looks and feels as they use brighter lighter when its a close up. The Mise-en-scene is the overall artistic concept which is New York citizen walking the streets.
