9-Shot Analysis: Noah and the Whale!

Our chosen song is All I Want is You by Barry Louis Polisar, the genre of music is Indie Folk and when comparing to another song of this genre I chose to compare it to Noah and the Whale's song "5 Years   Time". We were asked to take 9 different shot types from the first minute of the music video. The music video was very simple and did not offer a lot of shots to chose from in the duration of that minute.
Below is the Eight shots that I chose from the music video.


All of the shots from the music video were very literal and everything that was spoken of in the song, for example one of the lyrics are "Ill put my hands over your eyes but you'll peek through" and as shown in the 6th and 7th shot its literally showing the man putting his hands over the womens eyes then showing her peeking through his hands.
Also the shots are very alternative and unique to the video as shown in the last 2 shots of boys in scout uniforms dancing. Another thing that I noticed was the colouring of the video is almost faded and not very vibrant. Also starts with an textual introduction naming who the band is and what the song is called which seems quite unique to this genre of music.
