TH: Auteur Analysis


 Naughty Boy- La La La (ft. Sam Smith)- 2013.

Directed by Ian Pons Jewell
  • There is a low cutting rate which allows the audience to explore another country and culture which they haven’t seen before.
  • Also there is good lighting throughout which gives it an artistic edge, making the video seem happy despite there being a little boy walking around with complete strangers.
  • The video mocks real world problems such as deprivation and poverty.
  • Also there are no extra effects on the visuals making it seem realistic and creating verisimilitude.
  • Close ups on the child in the chorus, showing him as the protagonist against the evils of the world.

Justice- D.A.N.C.E- 2007

Directed by Jonas & François

  • Use of effects and cartoons are artistic.
  • There are close ups on the t-shirts of the actors and some of the video is displayed onto that.
  • Transitions are used effectively to switch to different shots.
  • There is a colour drain around the border of the video; this amplifies the action at the centre.
  • Throughout the video no faces are shown, keeping it artistic as well mysterious.

The xx- Islands- 2010

Directed by Saam


  • Colour balance on the video to make it visually gripping.
  • The video is just a reply of about 6 seconds, however each reply someone is taken out.
  • A dance that is replicated each time is interesting and artistic.
  • Mise en scene such as costumes amplify the huge X.
