Previous student work analysis - "Tongue tied" by Danny Hammond



Strengths

  • The variation of shots is widely spread which I really like, that he has used so many different shots and it gives the video a lot of variety.
  • He has suited the music and lyrics well to his video, applying them throughout. Watching the video feels like listening to the song.
  • The video has lots of character and you can tell all his actors were enjoying themselves, which I think adds to the video because his song is very happy one.
  • The video contains both performance and narrative, which works well and adds depth.
Weaknesses
  • The people playing the music aren't musicians and don't know how to play the instruments which I think lets down the video a little because it looks as though they are faking it as well as being out of time with the song.
  • The video feels at times that it was a bit unplanned and decided on in the last minute. Sometimes it worked, other times it didn't.
  • There were occasional points in which the editing was a bit off which didn't fit in with the song so took away from the song.
  • At points there wasn't enough development, for example in the car. A bit to much of the video was spent in the car and got a little bit boring at points.
  • For such an upbeat song I think that the editing was a bit to slow paced.
