My Favourite Music Video

Artist: Daniel Powter

Track: Bad Day

Release Date: July 25th 2005

I like this particular music video because I really like the way that two seperate stories are told and both come together at the end. I like the use of the split screens to show the similarities between the characters going about their day to day lives, and I also like how the video switches from the story, to the artist lip syncing the song. Also, I think that it is clever how the music video shows the two characters adding drawings to a billboard each day, and then at the end of the video this scene is reinacted in real life. As well as this, I like the fact that most likely many people could relate to the story told in this music video.

This video represents the illustration method, as the video links directly to the song and it's lyrics. This is my preferred type of music video, which is another reason why this particular music video is my favourite.
