[MP] Music Video Research 1

Blur - 'Parklife' (Romhanyi, 1994)



This video is very playful, with some footage slightly sped up to give a comic effect to the feel of the video. This is perhaps something that we could explore in our video, as it is a very easy effect to add and make look good.
  • Simple locations
  • Comic narrative
  • Very varied camera shots
  • Fish eye lens
  • Notion of looking - mirrors
  • Intergration of performance and narrative

  1. I think another interesting thing about this video is how well the location, costume and characters fit the theme and sound of the song, as well as the metanarrative of the artist - reinforcing their middle class background.
