The second video we are analysing is Will.i.am's Feeling Myself ft. Miley Cyrus, Wiz Khalifa, French Montana.
-Unlike the first video, their is very little performance, mostly this video consists of the artist trying to connote their power, sexual status and dominance.
- The image, top left, demonstrates how the artist is showing of their wealth, the large wad of money suggests that he is better off than most people and should therefore be respected. In addition to this the artist is wearing large amounts of jewelry such as rings and necklaces which help to connote his wealth. Will.I.Am - Music video analysis:
- The lack of mise en scene in this video is deliberate I feel as it causes the audience to focus directly on the artist. This further establishes the artist as powerful and central.
- The image, bottom left, demonstrates how the artist is showing off their sexual identity. Her body language suggests a sexual intention which is backed up by her facial expression which connotes power and sex. In addition the artist is wearing very skimpy clothing in order to show of her figure, this helps to signify sexual intent.
- The majority of shots focus directly on the artist with no real background, this keeps the artist as the main interest and helps to generate interest for the song. The angles of the shot are on average low angle shots which helps to connote a sense of power and status for the artist.
