This is the music video for Billy Talents song Surrender from their album Billy Talent II. I really like this video because of it's simplicity in it's setting, i think this would work well in a film opening because complexity will be hard to find and i like the range of shots. I like the way that everything is out of focus unless it's right in front of the camera which Ben Kowalewicz seems to be throughout most of the video. I also like the shots of seemingly innocent objects at the beginning of the video in tact and then breaking and smashing during the song. I also this it's effective the way that holes appear in the walls and let light into the room, it also seems like the room is falling down around the band.
This is Saving Aimee - We're The Good Guys music video. I like the initial layout of this video and the way it zooms in and out of different sections of the giant picture. I like the use of block colours and a white background because i think this makes everything stand out more. I also like the game of PONG played by two of the band members, i think this makes the video look more interesting, i like the way they have incorporated themselves into the game. I also like the idea of putting each different band member in a section of the screen at the same time, i think this idea could be a good way of making titles and introducing characters in a film opening. I also think the ending of the video where the action is stopped as the band is in mid-air is clever because it's a good way to end, in a film this could be the characters walking into the distance or something.
