Music Video Thoughts - Two



'Boro Kai Ego' by Goin' Through feat. NEVMA

This is another one of my favourite music videos. It is a completely different style of music to the last one posted and is a much more modern video, and I feel it shows a lot more advanced techniques than before. The main thing I love about this video would again be the mise en scene, with such a bright and fast tempo song being accompanied by a similar video full of life and tempo itself. Another thing I love about this video is the snazzy, artistic way in which it has been made with the majority of the background of the video being made up of computer animated effects, with the foreground being made realistic by keeping the artists as real people. It seems like these are the kind of effects I may be able to play around with in After Effects this year and through being quite an artistic person myself, the appeal is quite strong. Obviously it would be stupid to expect to produce anything this advanced at this early stage, but it is worth taking inspiration from and discussing at the very least.

I may well post other videos and songs up by Goin' Through as they have many interesting ways of producing videos down to some of the political and contreversial natures of their songs. In a lot of ways the main singer, NiVo is the Greek equivalent of Eminem through the messages he portrays in his songs, and with the current political crisis in Greece, it makes things all the more interesting in regards to his music videos.
