Summertime sadness - Lana del rey



From the first shot the audience will recognise the “ Super 8 camera” that is used over modern camera because it represents the type of music Lana del rey is known for which is * period, very classical and old. It also sets a tone to the over all music video. Somehow it creates a sense of dreary and sombre. This reflects the messages of the song. 
The use of vintage effect also conveys the idea of the story being authentic and love is different throughout ages this enables the audience to evaluate this in a deeper meaning that out of every bad situation there is always a positive solution or a light.



The light leak effect is continuously used to show the transition from one shot to another and to convey connections between 2 or more ideas. This creates a “ dreamy” look or nostalgia.

This is a close up show of Lana del Rey which shows the facial expression of her as distressing and melancholy - this acts as a foreshadow for unfortunate events that migth happen.



This wide shot of the waterfall and natural scenery connotes heavenly peace and paradise.





In this show there is a mixture of different paces. There is a fluctuation in fast and slow which synchronised the beat of the song. Some of the shots in this part is too fasr for the audience to even recognise. This sets an eerie and ominious ( threatening ) feel to the music video. Furthermore, This effects also suggests the protagonists erratic state of mind and allowing the audience to understand what shes thinking.



This scene connotes death and religion.
