Costume, Props and Semiotics

This is the original music video from stereo phonics that I analysed. I explained that costumes and the props that they have used.












This is a photo from our music video and I have analysed the costume and props that we have used in the studio footage.



Semiotics 
Semioticians classify signs or sign systems in relation to the way they are transmitted. This process of carrying meaning depends on the use of codes that may be the individual sounds or letters that humans use to form words, the body movements they make to show attitude or emotion, or even something as general as the clothes they wear.

We used some footage of clouds for the time lapse in the music video. We used it to show the audience that time is passing. We sped the video up so we see the clouds moving across the sky. The main music video cuts to the footage of the clouds for a few seconds and then it cuts back to the video in the studio.
