Video 4 - 'Green Day- Wake Me Up When September Ends'


This is by far one of the mostly watched video by me in my life. This is because it starts telling a story before the music and it's not as any other 'normal' or 'standard' music video. This is mainly why i liked it because it gave off a feeling of a movie and then the music started and the action carried on.
The double action when we're taken back to the studio the band is in brings us back to now, back to reality in case we start crying and in case we loose ourselves in the story. This makes me watch the video because I want to find out what will happen to the two main characters. From watching this particular video I have learnt that sometimes it is good to introduce the background story before we start with the music and I think this would be fun to experiment with. From the background story I must say that I really enjoyed the way the action in the 'war' brought out certain emotions and the music went very well with this because the hard electric sound of the guitars and the slowed down action really did a good job together.
