In this lesson we looked alot at stop-motion and how it can be used quite alot in some of todays most popular music videos. Two very different videos, with a large year span between them have used stop motion and in this lesson we analysed these videos to see how these effects are used and what they represent/ do to the video.
These videos are: Peter Gabriel- Sledgehammer and Cold Play- Every teardrop is a waterfall. After watching the peter gabriel video I found that the video is very unsual. At the beginning the relationship between the music and the visuals is almost perfect, for example, where Peter gabriel sings about a steam train and the editing shows a steam train in the video. However, later in the video, it becomes very random and there are faces made out of fruit, which has no relevance to the video. I am not sure why they have done this. Despite this, stop motion is used throughout the video, which I find very impressive. If I do some more research and practice how stop motion works, I may decide to use it in my own video.
