Cinematography:
This music video has a wide range of shots such as close ups and medium long shots. The variety of shots stops the video from being monotone which would create viewer fatigue as they would become bored of the same thing. As the music video is very interesting and aesthetically pleasing it allows the band to promote their music to the audience as they will watch the whole thing.
Mise-en-scene:
This video is a parody for pop videos as the band Seether do not agree with the way that they sell themselves as they believe that they are fake where as rock artists traditionally say what they believe to be true. The setting of the forest is slowly revealed to be a set throughout the video which shows what they are singing about especially with the aeroplane set as it is faked when the aeroplane is flying which has a comical effect for the audience.
Sound & Lighting:
The lip sync is in time with the music videos as in all the others I have researched which shows how much of a key component it is. The lighting is typical of a rock/metal video as it uses dark colours with an ominous setting which conveys to the audience what the band think of other genres of music.
Editing:
This, like the other videos, uses very basic effects apart from the shots were the clips were overlapped which is something I haven't seen in other music videos I have watched. I still think that straight cuts are very effective for a music video as they allow the video to be in sync with the song as well as the lyrics.
