lovefield crow close up

The crow is used in this film as a stereotypically scary bird. It is used to represent horror, evil, death and gore which creates a tension and creepiness in the clip. It also presents the audience with a feeling that something bad is going to happen or has happened. The crow further enhances the connotion that the man has killed somebody when he taps on the car roof. It gives connotations that the crow, like a vulture, is waiting to feed on the corpse the man has killed.

Lovefield establishing shot

This is the establishing 'crane shot' at the very start of the film. The dark clouds, sillhouette of the mountain and the deep depth of field shot of the barleyfield give the audience an isolated, desolate representation of the area. This instantly puts the audience on edge and makes them feel uneasy.

Lovefield by Mathieu ratthe

This is Lovefield by Matthieu Ratthe, a short film which i have analysed. My analysis is shown below.

I am going to research a variety of heavy metal videos to find out what the generic conventions of the genre are

This is a music video by Slayer that i chose to analyse. The editing , camera work and sound effects used are inspiring to me when considering how i will make my music video. The heavy metal music style is represented by these video techniques.
