The choose the first video that was shown to us. Naive. The music video's editing was really well done and was affective. We could see the relationship between the artist and the girl who was playing in the video. The edit when she blew out smoke then faded to his face was very affected as it looked like she blew the smoke onto the artist's face. The camera was always steady didn't see it shake once.
A weakness was in the mis en scene in one part, in the beginning of the video we see her walking towards us, but we also see a empty McDonald' cup in the screen which straight away got out attention.
Andrew Goodwin felt that traditional narrative analyses don’t really apply to music videos. That music videos are built around songs, which music videos, uses the singer both as narrator and as a character and that this singer often looks directly at the camera. For this particular music video it wasn't like that because we didn't really see the artist or the girl look into the camera.
Andrew Goodwin also said there are three types of relation between songs and videos: illustration, amplification and disjuncture.
The music video i choose has the illustration relation, the songs lyrics relate to the songs video, even the songs name "Naive" suits the video.
