Analysis of music videos- Black Eyed Peas.

 Black Eyed Peas – Meet Me Halfway
Abstract

I have chosen to analyse Black Eyed Peas – Meet Me Halfway as my abstract video to study. The audience can identify the video by the pop star image of the band as they are featured through out this video.
Each location has a separate character for each being one band member. The mise-en-scene in this video is very creative and highly edited. Each character has a costume for example an astronaut. The denotation within this video is four separate locations being the Desert, Moon, Forest and the Galaxy. Make-up is used to maximise the beauty of the female pop star. The video cuts from one characters story to the next but in a smooth way that is timed with the music.
This video uses artificial lighting, as it is appropriate for the storyline and the effect it creates. The sound in this video plays throughout and is non-diegetic.
The myth/Ideology suggests that they all want to come together but cant because of the distance between them.
