Low Budget Ideas

Videos Analysed:

1. Hifana - Bangzaï Cookin'
2. Cibelle Feat. Devandra Banhart - London, London

Genre/Sound:

• Quirky Video which represents the genre completely. Sharp editing also mirrors the 'Breakbeat' genre of which breaking the normal is normal.

Cinematography:

• Close up shots are only used to put importance on specific things, such as the demonstration of the cooking itself. The camera also seems to capture the boss's facewhich ironically shows off its low budget techniques of cosume.

Mise-en-Scene:

• Boss Dressed in black, chefs dressed in white, whcih is done to distinguish the difference in power between the two.

Editing:

• Very snappy editing, accompanied by cartoon edits to show emotion. Blade movements emphasised to show off the impressive editing techniques. Knife chopping on beat to connect the music video to the song. Microwave used as a reload of the beat to add interest.

Genre/Sound

• Old market and costume of artists portray the vintage sound.

Cinematography:

• Lots of establishing shots to let the audience understand where we are within the video. Lots of interested shots of London locations to keep the theme of the song going throughout.

Mise-en-Scene:

• Cibelle and Devandra dressed in old fashioned clothes to go against the new settting which they are in. Cibelle in white, Devandra in black so that they repel in colour but attract in the physical video.

Editing:

• Very slow continuous editing to compliment the ambient tone of the song.
