The song Love Is Easy by McFly gives an example of what we want to do in the music video with the camera shots and the comical seen in the video. Instead of using cuts continuously to move from one shot the another, camera movements is used to indicate a change in scene. The first example below shows the first scene, close up of an image then a new scene when the image is pulled away. The second example shows different close-ups of backdrops merging together and pulling apart for a new scene. The third example shows one simple camera tilt to change the look of a prop, here being the umbrella.
This music video shows a normal stage with all sorts of props as though the band are preparing for a play, soon revealed to be for the fans. The band only wear casual suits throughout and use backdrops to change scenes rather than use different locations. This makes the music video more fun and something that fans can keep watching.
