The video for Green Day Know Your Enemy is a pretty straight forward music video. The video consists of the band playing in a sort of wasteland while the camera moves round them and shoots from different angles.
The first shot below shows an establishing shot of the area giving then viewers a sense of where the music video is going to be taking place. As the viewer can see its shot at night in what can be seen as a field. This is the reason why the shot is located at the start of the video for the user to be able to get a feel of the setting where the band will be preforming.
For my video I'm going to be looking at something simlar before the band starts I'm gonna be shooting starts playing there will be an intro of an establishing shot of the bands practice room with the band members setting the instruments up before the music kicks in.
Dark and moody is what the shot is reflecting on the viewer which is further expanded with the lyrics of the song itself.
The establishing shot changes quickly to different key shots to show where the band are and this is resulted in the band playing in a war themed place.
The first shot of the band is the singer as the camera goes up a piece of piping which later expands to a rule of thirds shot.
This shot is a rule of thirds with the singer in the middle as the camera goes up the pipe to get the first of the singer.
The first actual shot of the singer is a side shot which seems to be a common theme within these style of music videos. I will be looking to having a similar theme for mine when I film it because I don't want the camera to keep focused in one position for too long as this would not impress the target auidence and could become boring.
