What kind of video is it ?

form

ation

I can tell by this music animation video that it isa narrative linear performance which explains thestoryline and which also fits in with the lyrics ofthe song. There are two main protagonists which

are Luke and his dad and at different points inthe song general things that get in Lukes waysuch as angry drivers or the bullies can beclassed as the antagonists of the performance.

What are the genreconventions?

The genre of music that theynormally create is that of analternative folk band. At the sametime, some of their songs can beclassed as an indie folk. This isbecause some songs have a folkaspect, telling a story and using the

instruments to help with the effect.comparing this song to their others .

For the video of the JCBsong nizlopi go for a morealternative type of videoand convention by usinganimation to portray theirvideo. This then can belinked to indie because of

the way they haveportrayed the music video.

Editing was a big part of the videoas it was all an animation so

obviously editing was used. Whilethis was good it also had its downturns that they had only a fewdifferent angled shot . With noclose ups just a zoom at thebeginning so they haven'texplored the camera angles ormovements as much. With theoccasional shot of the front of the

JCB and behind it.

Here you can see thedifferent shot angles of theanimation. These are the

only ones that featurethroughout the video .Even though there areonly these three shots theaudience can still see thestructure of the video and

As you can see, in everything that Lukesings about it appears. This in a way isreally good as it links to the lyrics and theaudience can relate back to the lyrics

through the video which supportsGoodwin's theory.

Music and visuals

Thought-out the video it is quite and easy slow going type of pacethat the band use and this is portrayed in the animation with thejob going at the same pace but later on in the song the tempo ispicked up this then is represented in the video with the JCBspeeding up as if he's driving away from the Bullies also through

the use of editing it made the video look as if the JCB is speedingoff. This then links back to the music and the fast tempo.

Shots of the band = no

One thing that I cannot add though isshots of the band itself playing the musicbecause the whole video is the

animation. Therefore the audiencewouldnt be able to link the video andmusic with the band, this then would goagainst Goodwin's theory of linking a

relationship between the music andvisuals of the performers and this wouldthen end in the audience not forming anrelation with the band.

Voyeurism

There is a lot of references in this videothat links back to voyeurism and how theband have looked in on the world of the

band because the song is purely aboutLuke and his dad driving away frombullies and from the lyrics you can makea clear connection from what is said and

what is shown in the video. So this tellsthe story of Luke and gives a sense ofvoyeurism into his younger self. At thesame time this is portrayed in a type of

dreamed jotted down animation

Representation of family

From our video family is representedthrough the fact that Luke is singingabout him and his dad. From the video

you can see that there is a clearrelationship between the main character(Luke) and his dad, the way you can seethis is that he is sitting next to his dad

and that through the lyrics Luke is sayinghow great his dad is and through theselyrics you can see that he is very close tohis dad, representing family.

Representation of youth

Through this video you can see arelationship of youth in two ways. Oneway would be that there is a

representation of when Luke was youngand how the youth is portrayed indifferent ways such as when he was fivein the animation you can see he is talking

about how he hates school and that hewants to turn into a transformer. Theseare good representations as when youthink of a five year old you think that

they have a wild imagination and that
