The video i am going to analyse is Fluorescent Adolescent by a band called The Arctic Monkeys. The video starts with a hand held camera coming out of a car and following people dressed as clowns. The video then begins to show these clowns having a fight with other people dressed all in black and masks, still using a hand held camera. After the riot has ended, a camera portrays a low angle view of two children on swings. The camera then shows a close up of one of the children as he begins to mime the lyrics to the song. after this many stills of pictures of a child are shown and then the riot then begins to continue from where it left off earlier. The video then ends with an explosion of a car and the camera encircling a clown. I chose to analyse this music video because it is pretty basic, showing it is possible to make an effective music video without having extreme locations and star actors. From analyzing this music video i have decided that it will be best to shoot my video in an urban setting, to match the lyrics of the song. I also think it will work best to have a young girl and boy who match a stereotypical everyday teenager.
