Research: Previous Student Video Review
The Music Video remake of Hero was a particular good one as it used many cuts and transitions which kept me constantly engaged and interested in the music video. They followed conventions suggested by both Goodwin and Vernalis. There is consistent repition of the word 'hero' and follows a basic illustration style. There is clearly links between the lyrics and the music video which makes sense for the viewer. The main female singer is also looking directly at the camera at times, which involves the viewer watching the performance. There is also quite clearly a couple base tracks used which are changed to and from through jump cuts. The camera focuses on the female artists when singing the chorus mostly and the male actor when we hear the male voice.
Overall I liked this music video as I believe it was constructed well with a good structure and story, the cuts and edits made me much more engaged with the music video, always paying attention, making it a successful music video.
