Chris Brown 'Superhuman' Music Video Analysis

This first shot is a classic to music videos. This is because it’s an establishing shot and helps set the scene for the rest of the video. It gives the viewers a feel for the setting of the video.
Although the next two shots don’t show any key techniques the shots are meant to work together by creating the image that the two people are facing each other and singing, although they are actually in two different shots.
The next part of the video is a low angle shot. This could link to the title “Superhuman”. It gives Chris Brown a powerful image and could imply that he is superhuman.
The fifth shot shows a clear change of mise-en-scene: lighting, setting and costume.
The next shot shows an over the shoulder camera shot to give the audience the same view as the character.
Again another low angle shot, this time of the other singer in the video. This could then go on to show that both singers could be seen as superhuman.
More special effects as there is a large explosion/ fire from a car crash
This is very different and shows a high camera angle. This implies that these people are vulnerable to the situation of the crash, and don’t know what to do. This scene comes near the end of the video and also makes the two singers seem more super the two shots contradict each other and therefore adds to the overall effect of both the song and the video.
