The cinematography of this video was, in opinion, very well done due to its intricacy and the producers' attention to detail- it was clear that hours of thought had gone into its concept. Each scene had very specific camera movement and positioning which I thought made it extremely successful as it heightened the dramatic effect on the audience. For example, the slow-motion scene of the actor falling, cutting to a close up of his hand that 'clicks' added to the effect as it was clear that this was going to be an important part of the plot. The mise-en-scene was manipulated in a very clever way as the car park they were in looked like a typical action movie scene, and the props made the whole production even more professional-looking.
Out of Mind:
This video included really convincing acting which is very important in these types of emotional narratives. The editing and camera work was almost textbook which made it look completely professional, for example the scenes of the close ups on the main character and her dad. The miss-en-scene of the real life situations, i.e. the park and the house emphasised the meaning and the storyline; how she had a normal life that became wrecked. Each scene seemed to add to the build up of what happens when she returns home- the silent and what seems normal journey from the hospital, for example.
Euphoria:
This video I thought had a unique use of cinematography as the extreme close ups portrayed most of the storyline: without them included the plot wouldn't have been as clear to the audience so I thought it was cleverly done. Also, the editing and camera angle of the boy that comes to help the main character was extremely effective, as it was clearly from the characters perspective which we as an audience don't often see. The parallel sounds were also really effective in terms of the effect on the audience as again it heightened the effect on the audience by adding a lot more tension than just a voiceover would have.
