Perfect Strangers-Jonas Blue & JP Copper

The two artists of the song are named, Jonas Blue and JP Copper. Jonas blue British DJ and record producer and is the producer of this track while JP copper is the person who is the singer, funny enough, neither of them are in the music video. During the music video we see a man and woman who seem to continually cross paths. These two characters are meant to portray the meaning of the lyrics-which is about a couple meeting who are complete strangers at first then see eventually fall in love. At the beginning we see the two on the beginning of their journey in some place which seems to be foreign to them. At the beginning of the video it’s almost as if their starting a journey.

We then see them together a lot more and as the video progresses we see their relationship flourish gradually. The video is set outdoors, in a foreign country, maybe an African country due to the scenery-we see them walk through a market which is selling African jewellery, as well as the characters we seeing dancing in a group. This relates to mood of the song, which is positive. The characters displaying happiness and joy as well as romance from the couple, really links to the lyrics as well as the upbeat of the track. The beat of the track also relates to the cutting rate of the video, when watched we can realise that the video is cut on beat to the track, this also makes the video more interesting and fun to watch.I will also embed this into my music video as my chosen song will preferably be a song which consists of a song and catchy beat.We see them travelling a lot as we see them in several locations, this keeps the video interesting and intrigues the viewers. The video is almost like a travel vlog which makes it different. Another way the artists have made the video interesting is by not including the actual singer. This could confuse new viewers as they wouldn't be sure who the singer is which is a negative but at the same time it also allows the artist to tell a story through their music, using other actors would allow the video to be almost movie-like.
Through out the video we see the use of mid shots,which would included either the male or female,this would help us establish where they are,what they doing and it also allows us to analyse their emotions through body language and facial expressions.When editing an filming me and my group will take this into consideration as this is a good way of creating a connection with the audience and the actor/actress.
I would say this music video is narrative as it displays the story of two people on an adventure and somehow finding each other and falling in love however it also shows a performance side as we see people dancing, skateboarding and having fun but unlike many mainstream music videos, we do not see the actual artist singing or making any appearances.From watching this video, i would add to my group and I music video, the use of cutting shots on the beat of the track as I’ve seen in many videos, especially this one. As it makes it really interesting and fun to view.
