Payphone - Maroon 5



Review

  • Personally this is my favourite music video of all time. I love the extravagance of it, the storyline is elaborate and a there are a lot of extremely good shots in my opinion. I also love the fact that it starts at the end and then proceeds to show you how he got to the payphone. 
  • The storyline keeps you watching there is so much going on once the robbery has taken place there are explosions and car chases and it makes it into almost a short film. 
  • There are so many things I would love to use that are used in this video. The shots in which you seem them getting shot at look amazing, as well as all the car chasing and explosions but realistically we cannot pull that sort of thing off. But I would like to use some of the other shots like the one of them running down a crowded street I think it looks good as well as the range of long shots they use.
  • I have learnt from this music video that a lot of work can be put into music video and some can even look like short films but for that to be possible a lot of money and time is required. 
  • Although I do love this music video I think this style of video would need to be avoided as there is no way we could go around blowing things up! But it would be great to try and create a music video that is almost as good as a short film. I think the key thing is looking a song and its lyrics to create a strong enough storyline.
