Inspirational Videos- Mumford and Sons "Gentleman of the Road"

Within this shot, the silhouette of the tree against the gloomy sky with clouds stands out really well. The sunlight coming through the clouds once again helps the colours and also giving connotations that a better time is coming. The use of an image being shot looking straight up into the air offers something different to a reasonably simple kind of video.






Being able to see the instruments being used allows the audience to connect with the musicians further. Contrasted with nature shown in the background, the overall feeling portrayed is that the band is simple and just enjoy playing their music.

The use of the rule of thirds being used for the main singer allows them to be centre image and therefore centre of attention. The use of colours in this particular shot is beautiful, giving off connotations of an older world through the effects put on it. Generally the shots within this video are fairly simple, however being able to maintain the sophistication and maturity needed to reach their target audience.
The use of the photograph in the wallet allows the viewer to instantly be able to follow the narrative available, however still keeping an air of mystery.
