In this analysis of AlunaGeaorge - Attracting Flies I will look at Mise En Scene, Editing and Camera. The theme of the videos seems to be centred around fairy tails such as Little Red Riding hood, Rapunzel, Goldilocks and Sleeping Beauty.
Mise En Scene and Camera: The mise en scene within this video is much more varied and has a number of locations, props and costumes. We see an establishing shot of where the video is taking place right at the start of the video.
Establishing Shot
We then see the artist as one of the characters of a fairy tale (Little Red Riding Hood), as seen by her wearing a red hoodie and all red. The location is set in at a common London setting. The lighting of the video is scarce, although the artist is clearly visible
Wide Shot.
We see another location , with a man and his dog in a car. The use of the dog can be seen as another prop and relate back to theme of Little Red riding Hood. Lighting is once again low but both dog and man are clearly visible.
Medium shot.
We see another person and location as a woman is seen walking through a house.The lighting is once again dim but the character is visible.
Medium Close up
We see the artist take on a new role as Rapunzel, with her out of the window. The lighting has taken a new colour with it being a bright yellow.
Medium shot.
Props of rings.
Close up.
Man on a amotor bike, New location of an alleyway. Lighting is similar to early scene where the lighting is low but the character is visible.
Medium shot with a slight upward tilt.
The artist takes on another role as Goldilocks and the 3 Bears. We see 3 fat men with bowls of porridge, with the artist in another new costume. The lighting is similar to most of the other scenes with little lighting in general but the artist and characters visible.
Medium shot
A new location with a man outside, with big buildings behind him/far away. Long shot
The artist takes on another role along with a new costume and a new location. We see the artist take on the role of Sleeping Beauty, she is sleeping in a house, and is wearing a white dress, The lighting is much more in comparison to other scenes and is bright.
Medium shot
A new location which is a car park. Medium shot with slight tilt upwards.
Props of pills. Clos.e ups
Lighting takes on a similar tone to the rest of the video. A new location features the building seen at the start in the background and a pub in the background as well. There are new costumes and new characters which seem to be the Seven Dwarves.
Medium shot.
Editing: Editing seems to be very prominent within the video but I'll pick out the specific bits where it is very obvious:
Editing seems to be prominent here with the lighting and the building in general.
Editing arguably is seen within other shots but with a similar tone with this shot, and only lighting being the upgraded effect.
