Analysis of the 'Hey There Delilah' music video

Analysis of 'Hey There Delilah' by 'Plain White T's'

1. 3 way split screens
2. camera moves with movement of the narrative
3. The singing is only a solo shot of the main band leader in a vast room.
4. The lighting within the narrative is icy and cold, with the use of blue as it is at night, the singing however is in black and white to show emotion. Two different colours are used to differentiated them from one another.
5. The narrative is set in the location of new york, showing her journey without Tom the lead singer. Iconic settings and objects are shown like times square, yellow taxis and the subway.
6. Split screen on band shots show his face, instrument, and zoom up of hand on playing the guitar.
7. Other band members are introduced but not singing or playing an isntruments, a pan view from left to right of them.
8. The split screen sometimes splits the whole image into three istead of showing three different pieces of action.
9. There are many moments within the solo band shots and the narrative where they look into the camera to show emotion.
10. Over the shoulder shot of her walking, camera moves with the action as she goes up and down so does the camera. Hand held camera used so you can go on her journey with her, it looks like a documentary of her life.
11. Zoom up of girls lips before showing face, teasing the audience.Also an element of  gaze theory as she is putting make up on.
12. Many shots of the lights in timesquare collaging together as one blur.This also happens in the shot of the train going past, leaving the light on the train station ceiling to blur out.
13. There is a still shot of the guitar to represent the genre and show how it is lonely just like Tom is.
14. There is a split screen moment where Tom plays the guiar, and the bottom half of the split screen is the shadow.
15. The lead singer is wearing a plain tee, converse and jeans creating a casual look represting the bands name. The more simplistic the outfits are the more the audience will focus on the action.
16. The last shot is off the chair left in the middle of the room that he was playing on, reflecting the idea of being all alone.
