The vamps music video breakdown

 The music video ‘ somebody with you’ is a pop music video for many reasons, primarily due to its upbeat narrative, which is focussed around the vamps trying to impress a group of girls. However in sections of the music video we see they’re performing on the stage which has been placed on a beach with lighting, and the audience of this is the same group of girls, allowing for the video to follow a narrative and performance music video approach. The whole music video is located around a sunny beach with the vamps playing football and eating at a house on the beachfront and Demi lovato sitting on a car at the entrance to the beach. We see many camera angles, from point of view shots to worm shots from them diving into the sea. Additionally when Demi is in the video there is some screen glare added in editing, maybe to differentiate the music videos performance/narrative approach. The music videos lighting changes throughout, from the sun in most of the video, until the chorus as the end with them performing on stage with some lights surrounding them giving off a concert like image with fans surrounding the stage, however this does link to the narrative as they’ve spent all day playing football, volleyball, etc. With this other group in the music video, so it does make sense for them to be there towards the end when they perform on stage

  1. Some good analysis here. In your next analysis try to develop your use of terminology even further and focus on genre (how is this pop?)
