1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products ? (Part One)

1. a shot that shows a link between lyrics and/or music and visuals

At 1 min.45, the lyrics say 'I'd advise you not to play with those' and the dancers point their fingers like they're telling someone. It is also done to the beat of the music.

2. a shot that typifies the way a record company would want their artist to be represented

At 0.58. Hannah (the atrist) has a glamour effect on her to make her look more like the star. It is a close up and she takes up most of the frame. Slightly looking down on the camera. Good lighting.

3. a shot that illustrates how your video uses music genre

At 0.04. The card shot shows us that this is the sort of song that would be played while people are gambling (like the original Jazz bar idea).

4. a shot that shows an intertextual reference

References to other chair dance routines, such as this one.

5. a shot that demonstrates your use of camera

At o.33. The camera goes from the light to Hannah freehand. It goes with the lyrics as she's leaning forward 'You think that I won't fight'. Also the motion is good for a music video.

6. a shot that demonstrates your use of lighting

At 1.51. Blue light pointing down at Hannah like a spotlight, changes the scene and makes her look glamorous.

7. a shot that demonstrates your use of mise-en-scene

Hannah is in the foreground and the dancers are in the background. This shows that Hannah is more important. The lighing is quite strong on Hannah, and there is the chais as the props.

8/9. Two shots which you feel demonstrate something which shows you have watched other music videos

We got a lot of inspiration from the Diamond Rings video from Chipmunk (here). Including the dressing room scene with the mirrors. (at 0.19 on diamond rings video, at 0.15 on our video).
