Michel Gondry - Star Guitar by The Chemical Brothers



In this video by Michel Gondry, we can see that it is a cut on beat music video. Despite that this is clever and interesting myself and Sarah found it was quite boring. We felt that it was predictable and we knew what was coming next.

Goodwins 6 has been used in this with the idea of the link between music and visuals. We can see that each of the music beats fitted with s different prop that was added each time a new beat started. Myself and Sarah agreed that this is well structured the idea that we have agreed on would not work with this method.

The whole video continues as though a camera is moving throughout different scenery.

The video was very repetitive as it used the same images over and over again. Me and Sarah believe that we want to keep our audience interesting and engage their attention with a narrative story. We believe that Michel Gondry’s style in music would not help us reach this goal.

  1. A bit short - try to write in more detail - discuss each of Goodwins points, take screen shots of the video and discuss specific elements of film language and always link back to how this will influence yoour own work.
