The Culture Show: Arctic Monkeys Preview

A preview of the band Arctic Monkeys new song, including interviews and extracts. wearing normal clothes, in a studio for the interviews. Two members of the band joined the interview Alex turner and Matt Helders, they didn't seem to be very used to the interview process. In the extracts the usual was used, guitars drums and other instruments.



In the background there was a non diegetic sound of the arctic monkeys song playing, it was quiet during the interviews, and loud during the extracts of the song video.




lots of high key and low key flashes throughout extracts red,orange, and purple lights.




Very interesting camera work including the compositions of the mid shot, the close up, and there was even the extreme close up of an eye. the compositions were always tracking very fast, even faster in the faster parts of the song. The high angle was used to make the person look important. Panning was also used in and out very quickly.





The pace of the songs were very quick, this was reflected in the cutting rate was was also incredibly quick making it very exiting.The transitions used were simple straight cuts.
