Courtney Barnett video analysis




Establishing shot and title of the song and the artist, green cheerful opening signify that the song will be up beat, this shot then pans down to the artist playing the role to fit the narrative, tracking shots are then used to follow her movement, the colour pallet for the whole video is bright and uses natural and studio lighting.

This is a master shot and the video refers to this through most the video to show a narrative element linking to lyrics. this shot is used 25+ times, the artist is always framed on the right consistently whilst the action is behind her.

final zoom shot of the bad plying after the verisimilitude is broken and it becomes a classic music video of the band playing, this is well sinked and shows comradery
