Ian Brown - Stellify

In this video Ian Brown is looking directly into the camera whilst he is singing. This makes the viewer feel more involved with the song as it is like Ian is singing the song directly to you. The band that are playing behind Ian are providing the beat and rhythm to the song, i've learnt that in my music video which i plan to make, i could use a band to represent the type of music that it is being playing. The band are wearing shirts with stars on, the word stellify means to appear as a star/to be with the stars. This visual aspect resembles Ian's lyrics.



In this clip Ian points and looks to the sky when he sings about the sky, this helps him emphasise what he is trying to tell us. His band are wearing black clothing and they look like they represent space and stars which is what this song, Stellify, is about.




This video is not abstract as it simply just shows the singer (Ian Brown) and the band playing the song. It is quite a simple video and could easily be re-created as the video just consists of Ian and his band walking through a town (In Manchester, his home town). There is no complex or sharp editing to this video either, its just simple amd steady, this also reflects the sound of the song.



The video is maily focused on Ian Brown (the singer), this allows the audience to recognise him and his importance. From this, i can assume that the audience will want to focus on the main singer so in my music video i shall aim to do that.
