Summary: My analysing this video I have been able to observe how a storyline can be split into two halves, with the protagonist in this video being enraged and depressed because of his love interest, as well as the context of how he came into this state. The decision to shoot most of the 'earlier' scenes in the daytime, with the consecutively later scenes being set at night helps to create a distinct and clear storyline for the audience. This has thereby shown me that through the use of Mise en scene and location, music videos do not have to take place in a typical consecutive manner, and that the audience can easily distinguish two separate storylines or scenes with the use of visual assistance.
