Bastille - Things We Lost in the Fire
What are the forms and conventions evident in the video?Illustration or amplification? Or disjuncture?
- The video is narrative and conceptual. The video plays on the idea of both light and dark as well as the video looking aesthetically nice. Using Goodwin's theory the video is more illustration because the video does not strongly link with the track however does take ideas and reflect of the track slightly. The narrative side follows a story which you cannot clearly tell after watching as it is jumbled so you see parts of the narrative at different times. There are also many different stories at once which makes it hard to try follow the story so the viewing isn't ambient.
- This video could be considered art because of the techniques and possible hidden meaning behind the video. The video contains many ideas of dis junction as the audience find themselves watching the video and not solely understanding the ideas conveyed and what meaning they have.
