The hills- The Weeknd (Music Video Research)



The video starts of as a narrative, in which the main performer has been in a bad car crash and leaves the car looking injured and in shock, he then proceeds to help the other people who were involved with the accident. The artist then starts to lip sync the music whilst also staying in role, for example, the women who were there with him start to take out their aggression on him, and as they walk away the car is perceived to explode in the background. Overall I would say the video is quite a boring and insignificant one, but it does suit the music very well with its monotone aurora. The lyrics also fit the video very well as it portrays the life of someone who is literally 'fucked' up. I think we could apply this music video to ours, by attempting to find a suitable storyline that centres on the lyrics of our song.
