Delta Goodrem - Lost without you


Delta Goodrem - Lost Without You on MUZU.

Textual Analysis...

>> The video starts with Delta Goodrem coming in from outside and turns on a lamp, which is on a piano. The lightening is very effective, because there's only one light to represent Delta. She's wearing casual but more glamours clothing. As soon as she turns on the lamp she sits down on a stool to take off her shoes; this is done with a close up.
>> After she takes her shoes off, she starts to play the piano. There's some form of panning, long shots and close ups when she's palying the piano.
>> It seems that she is in a roon alone and lonely. The room then contrats to the next shot, because it is like she is reminiscing how her life use to be. In this reminiscing shot it cuts to alot of people and it looks like she is having a party, in this shot Delta's sense of costume shanges from glamours to being very casual.
>> It then cuts to Delta sitting at the end of her staircase upset and hurt emotionally. She looks up at the stairs and the shot cuts to her and her friends messing about and having fun on the staircase. We see a zoom
out as that shot ends; it cuts back to her on the piano.
>>It then shows Delta in her bedroom throwing pop corn on her firends. She lies on her bed happy one minute, then the people around her disappear and she has tears in her eyes.
>> The video finishes with her hands on the piano and then it blacks outs.
We would like to use some elements from this video for our music video, because the song we have chosen has got a piano in the track and we believe that Delta Goodrem (lost with out ytou) is our inspiration. We have to be realistic and pick things out from the music video that we may want to use and implement in our music video. the things we definetly want to use are the piano scene and the lighting. we want to create the mood that is in the music video, which is sadness but at the same time glamarous.

  1. Sabina, this is not textual analysis. It's all denotation but no connotation. Why have they chosen particular shots? why that costume? what do all these things tell us about the star? what is typical of the genre? Have a look at Nilufa's
