Goodwin's theory analysis of Lower than Atlantis- Deadliest catch.





  Although this song is not the same genre as our chosen track for our music video project, it still has some very interesting effects that are similar to those of which we wish to create for our target audience in our project.
  The mise en scene presented within this video is really effective in creating a moody and emotional atmosphere without depressing and boring the audience. The costume in which the band have been dressed in is of muted earthy colours which allows them to provoke the audience to take notice solely of the music, instead of focusing on how they look and distracting them from the themes that are being communicated to them within the song and its video. 
  The location in which the video is filmed ties in perfectly with the theme and atmosphere of the track as it is set on and around a beach, the band clips especially. As the entirety of the lyrics is based around and speaks of, for example 'plenty more fish in the sea' and include interesting cut-aways such as when the band are riding on the carousel, walking around the seaside and skimming stones into the waves.
  the way in which the band is never seen singing allows them to not need lip-syncing, however; through this they also create an excellent effect due to the way that the fans are holding up and communicating the lyrics in unique and interesting ways such as the 'more fish' sign on the cat and the use of t-shirts with the lyrics written on. The use of the handwriting creates an authentic and creative atmosphere. The idea of authenticity ties in with the colour of costume as they look aged and worn, due to the earthy and muted tones the band are dressed in.
