Pop music Video analysis 2: Martin Garrix-Animals



Mise en Scene
The location used for the majority of the music video is a night club and the people in the club are reacting to the music and as the song begins to build up and tension is created, the reactions become bigger and bigger. Everyone looks like they're having the time of their lives dancing around. This is typical in pop music and what the artist may have been trying to do is make the audience understand that Martin Garrix's music has this amazing effect on people. This also links to the big focus of artist image in the pop industry. The costume of the five mysterious figures the camera focus's on are masks of different animals which conceals their identity, but we can still begin to guess that the one with the tiger mask is Martin Garrix himself as he is the main one with the most attention further persuing the idea of artist image.

Editing
On the beat cutting/editing which makes the video easier to watch.
