better man analysis

Classy and sophisticated font clearly outlining the performer and song name (suits the music genre which is sould/gospel)

Black and white again supports the sophisticated genre of the music

The artist is dressed for the occasion very similar to what someone would wear to go to church since the genre is gospel/soul

Close up of the artist showing that although he is not dressed in a fancy way but what he is saying is important.

Although the base is an odd instrument to be seen in a church during gospel this ads base and rhythm to the song outlining that he is the new gospel and has modernized

This is the same thing as having a base, it differentiates from the normal standard gospel music that we know

This offers a classy and sophisticated feel to the song.

Having a choir very similar to standard gospel music, they add a authentic feel and offer a nice melody

This is a sign of hierarchy, showing that Leon is very important since he is surrounded by all the other performers.

Leon is multi talented and is able to do what 2 of the most prominent preforms do which is sing and play a sting instrument

This is a mix of 2 very different instruments showing that they can both work together and make something work.

This is the first time we see the drummer in his own shot towards the end of the video, this highlights his low importance although without a beat the song wouldn’t work

He remains unknown and faceless which shows he is not a person of interest

This is the first scene where it is only the guitarists though we have seen them before.

Though they are all Caucasians their mise en scene highlights a diversity in the preformers

Here we forcus on the mouth of Leon, this is telling us that what he is singing is of importance

Here we have all the preformers going all out for the last scene a kind of “final push” they give their all and we see tem all working together showing teamwork and diversity.

At the end the light starts to fade showing the end of the show.All performers

stand straight and wait much like soldiers awaiting orders

Leon is looking down to give an epic ending vibe
