These include the effective use of lip syncing, simple but effective camera work including close-ups, and precise editing to perfectly sync the lip syncing with the song.

Rockstar – Nickleback Textual Analysis Rockstar by Nickleback is a video that is an influence as it is a whole video of lip-syncing, and as lip syncing is an important part of our video it is good to see how it should be done. The sound of this video is obviously important, as the song is what the video is an advertisement for. The song in the Rockstar video has no meaning within the video as it does not follow any narrative but Is simply a number of people, each singing part of the song. This influences out video as lip-syncing plays a big part throughout our video. The mise en scene is another thing that is relatively inconsequential to the actual song. It is set in a number of locations, most of which have little significance on the song, however, in our video our locations will hopefully tie in with the lyrics. The camera work in this video is very simply but also very effective. The video uses close ups of a variety of people who are all lip-syncing something we need to pay close attention to as we will be aiming to include many close ups our lead singer singing. The concept of the close ups is simple but it is something that if we do not do correctly will ruin the effect of the lip-syncing. The editing of this video is the key thing that we can take to use for own video. We must make sure that the song and our lip-syncing is perfectly synced in order to create the effect that our singer is genuinely singing the song.
