Evaluation: My Video and Goodwin's Theory

My video follows some of Goodwin's theories.

In the video there are links between the visuals and the lyrics:
Two examples - When the lyrics say "I think you've turned it 'round" there is a still image spinning around.
- When the lyrics say "I saw this girls 'round town" there is a shot of the girl in the town among other people.

I like to believe that visuals compliment the music. The rushed and upper class images enhance the feel of the lyrics.

My video fits in with the genre characteristics and has a good resemblance to other videos in the same genre.

There is a fair bit of the Notion to Looking in my video. When the girl is walking up through the town the shots depict her as something to be admired and something that the guy wants to have.

I believe that my video comes under the category of concept based video. There is no direct performance (I would consider direct performance to include instruments) and there is a bit of a narrative through the video but it's not souley narrative.
