Comparing our music video to others from similar genres on you tube.

Looking through music videos on you tube of videos from the same genre we found many similarities and differences between theirs and ours.

We firstly looked at another A level students work on a Go Team song, that thy too had used for their a level coursework at a different college.

The song they used was huddle formation, and we saw a number of similarities to ours, through their use of iconology with images of vinyl, retro clothing, 80's fiasco, and arcades etc, thing we had tried to achieve in our video.
We shared many similar shots, such as this one of the vintage record player, to enhance the feeling of old school music.


compared to ours:



their video also uses many of the same type of shots, with screens within screen, and a few part where there are boxed screens. The fast past movement we created in urs by speeding up shots, has also been done in this person's video, a they must have interpreted the song in the same way as us, as being very fast paced, and normal speed wouldnt have the right effect.

their video differs to ours in that they dont use an lip synch to break up the footage, which we did for the chorus, and which other Go Team videos tend to do, for example in the Ladyflash video, the action is broken up by singing.:



in the go team videos, they make a point of having planer backgrounds when the singing is taking place, which allows the audience to concentrate on this, and we did this in our video also, with the black back ground.
