final video constructions

Welcome home: Radical face




Genre: Alternative indie

There is a clear link between the visuals of the video,the genre and the music. Firstly the style of Alternative indie is free and quite hippified. We are first shown a small shed covered in random bits and bobs that you may have found on the roadside, on the beach followed bty an acoustic guitar. I emphasise the type of guitar because you do not very often find an electric guitar in alternative indie music. this is followed by a man bear foot then a sharp cut to the forest.And is clearly recorded in america maybe louisiana,missisipi or texas by looking at the house style and surroundings.

Each part of the video embraces the genre of alternative indie and its free living earthy values.

 This video has alot of narrative and performance. The video does not take place in one location and has alot going on in every scene making it extremely interesting regardless of the fact it is just one man thoughout the whole video.The song and video makes you feel free and happy, almost like you want to run through a field barefoot for hours and just be careless. It makes me feel like dancing without careing how bad my dancing is.

it also makes me think that one day i will go home and will be  reminded of all the things in my childhood. But we can't rewind time. We can never experience the things we did in the past. As kids we had no fears and no doubts. In a year i  will be finished with school und go study and work. And one day i will come home and i will be reminded of my childhood.  Goodwin's Music Video Theory refers to 'Thought Beat', Performance narrative, Star Image, Relationship between the Song and Visuals, Technical Aspects, Voyeurism of Women etc. I feel that this video presents performance narrative, star image and the relationship between visuals and the song beautifully.
