After re-looking over my previous video analysis' I have done, I found I particularly liked the song by Ellie Goulding and the music video she created, I decided to look further into Ellie Goulding's music videos and song to discover if there are any I feel I would be able to use for my Music Video, I discoverd this song by her called 'Figure 8', I loved the lyrics and the depth of the song, as well as the music video, it's simple but very effective.
The song talks of how she chased his love around a 'figure 8' and that she 'loved you more than I can take', essentially the song is about an obsessively strong love for someone who isn't bringing happiness to her or returning this depth of love.
I found the song very inspiring and felt that it had a strong potential to provoke emotions in my audience and also help to tell a story that would entice the audience in. The music video also presents some reflective and methaphoric images which I feel are very effective and this is an aspect I want to use within my video.
I'm still going to use the idea of telling the story with images and methaphors, but would like to encorporate another story throughout as I feel this is more effective and ensures the audience understands the video as well as getting emotionally involved in it.
Below is the music video for Ellie Goulding - Figure 8, I have finally decided the song that I will be using and feel this song is both effective and emotionally involving and will be easy to strongly tell a story alongside.
