Marina & The Diamonds- I Am Not A Robot




I've chosen to analyze this video as I like the different types of makeup that she wears in the video as it is inspirational for the type of makeup I am going to be wearing in our video. We want to create an over the top look by using makeup, as this will add emphasis to the singers emotions and make it seem more dramatic and realistic.



In the clip above she is covered in some sort of black paint and glitter, of course this would be too exaggerated for what we want to create but it looks very good and stands out as all you can see is her mouth. This amplifies the lyrics as she looks exactly like a robot so the audience get a clear image of what she is singing about, this relates to Andrew Goodwin's theory.




In the clip above, the makeup is something we could maybe create although we don't want any makeup below the face as she has body paint on. I love the red lips she has with the diamante on. I love the face paint she has on that is black and green.




In the clip above we see her with silver diamante eyes and red lips with diamantes, I feel this looks really good and very sophisticated, and I think something like this would be good for our video. I like the diamante lips as they really stand out and draw attention to her lips when she is singing.

  1. Liv. Explain why you want to create an 'over the top' look in your video (how will that help reflect the feelings and emotions of the song?).

    Make sure you explain how things link to Goodwins theory.

    Explain why you love the diamante lips (would this be suitable for your character/singer?)

    Is your singer sophisticated? How will you create this air of sophistication in your video? Who will this appeal to?
