Shot Count (Stereophonics)
In
this Stereophonics’ music video ‘Indian Summer’, there is a total of 165 shots that
range between long shots, medium shots and close ups. Each shot in this music
video lasts for a maximum of approximately 5 beats in the verses and about 8
beats in the chorus. This creates an effect that the camera is never still and
makes the flow of the music video go with the song.
The
target audience of this specific music video is a mix between men and women,
this is because it is a male perspective of a love story and also it is quite
interesting for women to follow the story and I know for a fact that
Stereophonics has a fairly sizeable female audience. I would assume that the
audience appreciate the sound of alternative rock, which is a really neat, and
acquired taste.
I
do think that the audience is predominantly male because I think a lot of the
audience listen to this song as they may relate to the song and the narrative
of the song such as the love story and the train journey. Each shot from the
music video is flowing and it just goes with the song and the rhythm of the
song.
