Analysis of Rock Videos 3



In this music video the band wear matching outfits so that they stand out from the crowd.  They wear dark clothing which is conventional for a rock band.  The band members wear the same outfit throughout, and other people in the video wear dark make-up and dark clothing.
Many shots are used in the music video including close ups and long shots.  There are also many camera movements and angles used in the video including low angled shots and also a pan.
The editing of the video matches the song, during the fast paced sections of the song the editing quickens and during the slower sections the editing is slowed down.  This fits well with the video and keeps the audience intrigued.
Lots of different locations are used in this music video, including a parade, 'The Black Parade' a burned city and a hospital room with a hospital bed.  These are all dark and dreary places which matches with the rest of the music video.
The music video follows the narration of the lyric, as the band end up playing in 'The Black Parade' which is what they band are singing about.
