Florence and the Machine - What the Water Gave Me

I like the use of the exterior location and the shots of her hair blowing and her hands when she is dancing. The entire video is made up of her in a recording studio, and although I don't have those facilities I can still incorporate clips of people tapping out a drum beat or dancing, as well as singing along in the wind, running through forests etc. Some clips are also slowed down, and I am interested in manipulating them in this way, or playing them backwards. I also like the mirror shot that also features in other videos such as Meantime // The Givers, however I am unsure how I would achieve this, but I want to find out.

Cough Cough - Everything Everything

I like how it's in black and white, and the word 'cough' at the start is quirky and bold. The random objects and scenes within it such as the pertol pump and the smoke lead to the orange lava scene. The mise-en-scene of the band is quite 'street' and the large drums replicate the music in the song, and there is a large amount of lip syncing, which makes this a performance video, however there are clips of narrative due to the fighting on the streets and the police.

Bell X1 - Starlings over Brighton Pier

I love the use of birds in this video, and wish to include small clips of them in mine; however filming them may be tricky as timing is important. The drive and the view of the trees against the sunset is sweet, much like the Paper Kites video.

Small clips of birds that cut to a different time in the video, (as seen in The Givers Noche Nada video) would look good, as well as that effect throughout the car journey, as this is nice, but a little dull.

The Paper Kites - Bloom

I like the forest location and the whole setting of the video is simple and beautiful. The tree as a base location is nice because of the shadow against the sunset, and a cute scene like that would be nice in my video.

Half Moon Run - Full Circle

I like the non-performance clips in this video, as they are similar to other videos I like, and something that I wish to include in my own video. Possible song for music video?

Quesadilia - Walk the Moon

I like the quirky vanish/re-appear editing, it's good fun and you can do a variety of random actions with it. I don't want to do this style of video however, as it's too much of a performance and being a clown in front of the camera.

Bell X1 - Drive-by Summer

Light-hearted mellow song, similar to Noche Nada by The Givers, possible music video song?
