Music Video's I Personally Enjoy

Music videos which I have found and have thoroughly enjoyed are posted below. The reason why I enjoy these is because they are inventive and interesting.The first one is by the indie/rock group 'Two Door Cinema Club'. The song is called 'Undercover Martyn' and is embedded below.



A section which is especially interesting from a technical point of view is at 2:06 where several editing techniques are used to make individual band members appear in 'negative' to the rhythm of the music.

The second video is also by 'Two Door Cinema Club'. It is called 'I Can Talk'.



This video uses narrative, lighting, CGI and frequent editing tricks to confuse the audience and almost, take them on a journey through all of the different dimensions.

Thirdly is a video by the band 'The All-American Rejects'. They formed in Stillwater, Oklahoma, USA in 1999 until present.


The reason why I like this video is because it makes the audience think that whether they themselves have a "dirty, little secret". Some of the confessions held up by the members of public are towards the darker end of the spectrum facing contemporary issues such as racism, drug abuse and religion.
