Grimes "Vanessa" review 17

This music video is "Vannessa" a song by Grimes. I thought it was interesting how in the beginning you could here Grimes directing her models for the video. I also thought the angle of the women with freckles was very visually striking, especially with the black and white. There was a white back drop through the whole film so they could focus more on the dramatic movements of the people starring in the video.

Review sixteen

This music video is for the song Gone by Lianne La Havas.  The theme is very gloomy since its based on heartbreak and pain, which is probably why there is a greenish blue tint throughout the video. The close ups on the singers face and slowmotion was supposed to make the viewer focus on the singers facial expressions. I liked the underwater shot which had a man with dreads sinking with a slight light around him. After this shot they showed the singer crying with similar lighting as the water, which I thought was interesting since it seemed to connect the ocean he was in with her tears.
