Although the image below perhaps does not display it very clearly, it is the analysis of the lyrics to our music track. We approached this analysis using a similar process to the one we went through doing our textual analysis: establishing the very important (although sometimes unnoticeable) visual links with the lyrics. There were also many ideas circling round the group, but it would sometimes be difficult placing them within the visual timeline of the music video so we decided to annotate how we saw the order of shots being inter-cut throughout.
We all agreed that nature is a VERY key character in this project, and therefore thought the best time to place these nature shots we were discussing would be at the beginning of the song. This- as in feature film- will principally establish the settings of our music video- a key convention in film of this genre according to our textual analysis. It's not uncommon for music videos to begin with the artist in frame, however since nature is such a vital aspect to Amanda's representation and to this song in particular, it would make sense for it to be established before the artist herself.
