Analysing a Promotional Video - Facebook Here Together

Prior to this promotional video for Facebook, Facebook had were going through a lot of turmoil in terms of how they were perceived in the public eye so in order to win the users they here together. This promotional video in my own respected opinion is very effective as i believe it does what it intends to do effectively by reminding users as to why they used Facebook in the first place. They did this by showing clips of what you would typically see on Facebook such as funny video's, family photos and updated statuses. As Facebook is in the same professional field as the client i can use this as inspiration.

Sound - narration runs throughout the whole video explaining that Facebook will do better to become the app people once signed up for and accompanying this is sound from the app such as notification bells clicking of mouses and typing of the keyboard

Shot types - montage sequence of the app in use to remind the audience as to why the app is well mixed with shots from the real world. screenshots of Facebook and screen recordings of Facebook moments.

Editing - quick cuts is the only thing that drives the editing. nothing special happens however this allows the promotional video to get straight to the point of what they're trying to advertise.

Research Into The Development of Editing

Early Editing In the present day, editing in film has various purposes: it aids in the telling of a storey, it creates a mood or atmosphere, and it contributes to the overall success of a film or video. Short films used to be one lengthy, static shot in the beginning. Early filmmakers were afraid of combining multiple shots of different items taken from different perspectives and locations because they feared it would confuse an audience.

Griffiths is regarded as the founder of narrative cinema; he pioneered techniques such as parallel editing, which allowed him to push his films to new heights of intricacy. Griffith's films were highly valued by Soviet directors such ...

What is Freud's Theory Of "The Self" Psychoanalytic theory is the theory of personality organization and the dynamics of personality development that guides psychoanalysis , a clinical method for treating psychopathology. Theorized by Sigmund Freud, his psychoanalytical perspective presented a unique way of looking at the connection between the body and mind with personality. he theorized that the mind is made out of three main components when referencing personality; ID, Ego, Superego.

Analysis of Kanye West Stronger.

Kanye West's music video demonstrates the general codes and conventions of a standardised rap music video, for example he wears expensive jewellery and visuals of fast cars and women to be gazed upon. Something that Kanye West is no secret too, however this music video happens to have many intertextual references to the 1988 film Akira. This can be seen in the visuals of him being scanned by some sort of machine which is also seen in the film Akira. The video also has direct links to the lyrics. This can be seen where the song plays the sample of the "harder better faster" by Daft Punk by showing Daft Punk within the video. Another example of this is where Kanye West says "i know god put you in front of me" and he looks directly at the female interest in the video. The song has a futuristic feel which may be the reason which may be the reason why he chose to include the intertextual references of Akira. Although i believe Kanye had a lot of says in the video,...
