Bailey DanaharShot analysis of Radioactive

 This screen grab shows the rst shot from the music promo ‘Radioactive’ by

Imagine Dragons This shot shows

the character of the video and also

the surrounding It is clear by the

surroundings that this character is

in a remote area as there is only

wood and no civilisation Due to the

longshot it is unclear who this

character is and what se! they are

 This screen grab shows the ne!t shot of the music promo and this is a close"up of 

the character This close"up enables

the audience to identify the

character and clearly shows that

the character is a female The

screen grab shows that the

character is still in the woodland

and is on her way to an un#nown

location

 This screen grab is a close"up of what the character is holding By having the

ob$ect covered up it leaves the

audience to use their imagination asto what is under the ragged old

sheet This ob$ect may be important

because it is covered up which

implies that the character doesn’t

want people seeing it This suggests

that the hidden ob$ect is secretive

and important to the video

 These two screen grabs are the rst shots we see of the band% but they are veryrestricted as we only see the hands

of the guitarist and a mid"shot of 

the drummer This might be

because the video is secretive and

the director doesn’t want to give

too much of the storyline away

from the beginning as this will

#eep the audience interested

 This long shot shows the destination of where the character was heading and

creates a sense of mystery for the

audience as we have no idea what

is inside of this shac# and what is

going to happen This dis$uncture

storyline helps to create the

atmosphere in the video and also

ma#es the audience imagine what

is going to happen
