This is the video for Robyn- Dancing on My Own. Again, this video is pretty simplistic, but what i liked about it was the way the mood was captured via the lighting. Also, the use of several different locations intercut was very inspirational.
The dark lighting here mixed with the red is very striking and contrasts well with the brightness of the other shots. I also really like the blurry shots of the crowd dancing that opens the video.
The multitude of angles and shots works really well here and i love how it is interlinked with the next location by having the same movements in both.
The use of the space here also works well; its cuts from a long shot to a close up in quick succession.
i really like the use of different locations, using a medium shot of the singer, but the same routine so the transitions between them work well.
These crowd scenes are effective as it is reflecting the lyrics of the song, of being on your own.
There is a theme of the dancing the whole way through the video which makes the transitions between locations and scenes flow smoothly. The singer also has a simple yet well choreographed dance routine that she performs throughout the video.
The bright lights brought in in these shots work well with the climax of the song. Filming the back of the singer is also really effective as if give the impression you are part of the crowd.
