take her back - pigeon detectives, camera work

THE PIGEON DETECTIVES - TAKE HER BACK. (2007)



in this music video the camera work is very good in my opinion it shows many diffrent shots from difrent peoples points of veiws and also many other diffrent shots form diffrent distances.

the diffrent p.o.v. shots that are use in the music video is the shots when the man is looking at the women. and also as the taxi driver (being a member of the band) is looking through his mirror into the back seat. i think that these shots are good because they make the veiwer feel more involved in the video and they maybe able to relate better to it.



and



also in the video there a vast range of mid shots these mid-shots often are showing the whole band and also the leader singer who really is the most crutial member. the mid-shots show detail but not as much as a close up or extreme close up would.



and


there are close ups and also extreme close ups in this video. these are used very frequently as they are able to show up huge amounts of detail and because the camera dstance chnages the veiwer is some how drawn to watch it more to find out what happens next.



and



when there is a small chance the director has thrown in a very short and sharp shot of the area and what the driver can see this could be thought of as a point of veiw show or could be thought of as a landscaping shot.



finally there are some other shtos that are used very reguarly this is a angled shot on this angled shot it shows the domminance of teh band and also creates a diffrent veiw of the scene. angled shots are very good to use because of the diffrent mods and feeings it can give off. it is known that the higher the camera shot is the better and more dominant person is the one holding the camera mean while whilst looking up at the character the mood canges and the chracter becomes the more domminant person. so using these in the music video is clever because it shows how great the band are.
