Rough cut 6: John Mayer- Why Georgia

In this updated roughcut Danny and I have included more shots of the crowd at the gig as this signifies that the charcater is a struggling muscician who is starting his career by performing at local places instead of more main stream locations such as a stage and having a back up band, instead he is represented as an individual performer. Furthermore, for the diagetic introduction we have chosen to keep the character anonymous as he looks through the shop at vinals and CD's until he is shown buying the guitar from the shop owner. That is when the character is revealed to the audience, however there are some shots that are shaky throughout this introduction which we are planning on re-shooting, as well as shoot the couple being in the same location at the same time as the performer because they are characters that are seen throughout the video, so introducing them at he beginning would make more sense for the audience as this will connote a connection to the performer. Furthermore,  this idea is intertextual to other music videso from the same genre such as Ed Sheeran's music videos, where the narrative is based on other characters that are not the performer, however the performer is seen in the background or performing in certain scenes.
