Analysis of a Similar Music Promo - Gabrielle Aplin & Fiona Bevan

Gabrielle Aplin



This video made me realise and also gave me inspiration for our music video to represent the band in the best way in terms of their genre and the lyrics. The shots in this video also have gave me ideas about when we make our videp especially the shots with Gabrielle playing the guitar. This is because it shows the lighting and the meaning behind it. It shows how happy and peaceful she is when playing her guitar and thats what we want to portray in our own video.



This song isnt about a love song but it makes me think it has meaning and thats what we want to come ascross in our video. The lyrics are clear and relatable. Even though she has had her car stolen, she has brought herself up and made her life better and she seems more free than she ever was.
At the start of this video it could suggest that she is weak and vulnerble but on the other hand, it could suggest that she is sad and wishing for something else. As the video goes on, the footage and lyrics suggest that she works hard to contine her life and forget the past. 3 and a half minutes into it she looks free and finally enjoying her life.



I love this video.
Its straight to the point with the lyrics and their meaning. The song is obviously about love and relationships but she doesn't want to fall in love because she is scared she'll get hurt and make a mistake and may loose him
At the start of the video, 0 - 37 seconds is setting the scene on her realtionship status with this guy.
The guy in this video shows a bit of jealously and perhaps paranoid so she might have to be extra careful with what she says and how she says it to him.

All three videos are great examples of the way that my group want to protray our video for our music promo. There are great camera shots and shots that we want to show in our video to suggest jealously within relationships.
