Intro
Coldplay are a very popular band that have played all over the world and in many exciting venues. They even played in the Olympic opening ceremony which is a very big thing to do. I came across this band when I was a lot younger and I always liked the inventiveness of their music videos.
How Many Shots Are There In The Music Video?
The entire music video is one continuous shot of a performance based music video, which captures the essence and emotion of the song. The audience feel a really deep connection with the artist as he sing directly to them.There is not much at all going on in the background so this one continuous shot is just directly about this artist singing.
Where Were The Cuts In The Music Video?
Since it was just one continuous shot there were no jump cuts or cuts in general to comment about. But he did do certain things on the beat of the music like run or slow down or glance at the sea beside him.
Did The Music Video Shrink Or Expand?
Looking at it from my point of view I think it did both as the background was changing from night to day about three or four times which obviously resembled different parts of the day. But the music video had a feel overall which made ir feel like it was expanding time because of the amount of slow motion that was used.
