Professional Project Review
For this blog post, we had to review music videos and write a professional review on them. The song I chose is Not Gonna Die by Skillet. the video follows a little girl and her friend which is a lion fighting a 6 headed dragon but they keep getting hurt and knocked down. The video ends with the two outsmarting the dragon instead of overpowering it and they almost die if it wasn't for the buildings that fell on top of it. Even though the video was entirely animated it still uses a few of the principles of filmmaking. There isn't something new with each edit but there is for most of them. there are a lot of different angles and shot sizes. There aren't any huge jump cuts. The story is unique to me because the music video is entirely animated which I think they did very well. One element I would apply to my own work is how well it's edited with the words matching what the singer is saying. One of the things I think it could improve on is the number of running shots are too much and to take a few out. Overall I still really like the band from listening when I was younger and really enjoy their music.
