Influential Music Videos

Dirty Pretty Things - Bang Bang You're Dead
In this video the we see the expectations of fans of the rock genre and of ''Dirty Pretty Things'' are met with a live performance, multiple close ups and shots of the whole band. The editing of this video matches the pace of the song, with the cuts being fast and matching the rhythm of the song. The fast pace of the editing feels aggressive and matches the guitars being strum which makes the video suit the violence of the song. There is no real narrative in this story and like we wish ours to be, the video is driven by events that match the theme of the song, with this videos theme being resentment and ours focusing on past relationships and nostalgia.
This video has influenced us by making us wasn't to replicate the editing which is in rhythm with the song and creates a better looking more atmospheric video.
