International Music - Genre Rap: Imran Khan - Satisfya

The song Satisfya by Imran Khan and its a International/Indian song in the genre of Rap.

The music video of this song has used a a lot of cinematography. It starts with a close up of a chain necklace which has the logo of the Artists record label, this shows that his record label is being promoted and this video proves Goodwin's theory. Theres then a close up of the Artist face showing who it is and that the song is by him again Goodwin says this in his theory. Some of the shots link with lyrics such as when the artists said Lamborghini, there was a long shot of a Lamborghini car, the shot must've been taken with a crane as there was a pedestal shot of the car. Some some shots of the artists were panned quite a lot to synchronise with the beat in the music and also to create a strong mood with the song. Theres then some more close up and long shot scenes of the artist again showing to the audience who it is. There were birds eye view shots and worms eye view shots of the car, this links with the lyrics about driving, cars, fame and money. There was also a worms eye view shot of the artist, this shows that he is the main person in the video, he is the songs artist.

The music video was also heavily edited with various types of editing shown throughout the whole video. It starts with a flashy filter and the name of the artist and title of the song in big bold writing. The artist name was written in white so it is bold and the name of the song had a brown texture so that it stands out more. There was also many scenes which faded into each other which gave a slow effect at the start because it synchronises with the song starting up slowly, Slow motion was also used with the Artist smoking to again synchronise with the pace of the music. There was a lot of cuts which were cute well with the changes in the audio, this was done so the video and the audio work well together and therefore more appeasing to watch for the audience.  Many effects and flashes were used to change between scenes and this goes well with the beats of the song and its also entertaining to watch the video.

There was also a lot of mine-en-scecne used in this music video. The use of heavy lighting was used in dark shots and the light was also used to create effects such as the light fading to turn off on the artist's face. There was also the use of RGB Colourful DJ/Party lights in the background. The artist is wearing has a Lamborghini, a chain necklace, a gold kings throne to sit on and a portrait painting of the artist. This was all used to go with the lyrics in the song, the lyrics talk about Money and Fame and about how he has become famous and rich, that is why these props were used to symbolise that. The artist also had fire in the background behind him so that it links with the lyrics "Bring the heat girl, I'm a bring the fire". The character also had smoke to add an effect and this must have been done with a smoke machine.

Overall I think this a great music video as it has many types of shots, editing and miss-en-scene which all link and synchronise well with the lyrics and the pace and beat of the music.
