Music Video Examples (a Critique) - P1(a-f)

Here is two videos that I find inspiring:



1) Flo Rida - Whistle                                            
      Whistle - is a pop rap song which was very popular in 2011 - 2012.  In this video I like the script and shots as well. The song is slow and sad, as well as video. Through all the video it is kept an amazing atmosphere that is really suitable to the song. I think that this is a good example of music because this music is energetic, fast and drives you to move.

2) John Newman - Love Me Again        

In this one I like the camera work. It has been shot by two cameras at the same time to have such an effect. The atmosphere of the video is amazing. Slow motion shots are done perfectly. I think that this song is a good example because it is very energetic.
