Analysis of a music video *4 key concepts (research)






This is the video for Dj Zinc and Ms Dynamite - Wile out. The genre is drum and bass and Dj Zinc is very well established in the underground scene. The video conforms to the genre, but is different to what both artists would usually do. 


The setting for the video is in a quite run down club. We see lots of graffiti as Ms Dynamite comes down the stairs in the building, which adds to the underground feel of the video. The dark clothing we see on Ms dynamite is her own style, and is dressed up with lots of jewellery, which makes her stand out as the main participant. 


The music video is linear to the drum and bass genre, and the editing is varied between quite slow shots and fast paced. The fast paced editing is shown whilst Ms Dynamite is performing the song to an audience, creating a energised atmosphere. The slowed down shots are of her walking down the stairs to the stage are good for letting the audience get a feel of the surrounding's.
