These shots are from our re-make of Britney Spears' music video 'Hit me baby one more time' that we filmed as a class and edited to as closely replicate the original video as possible.
This tracking shot is the first shot in the music video and shows the foot tapping against the table as the camera moves closer towards the foot.
The purpose of this shot was to indicate her impatience and her eagerness for the class to end.
There are two moments when the camera cuts to the clock of the classroom in a close up shot and an extreme close up.
Due to frequency and proximity of these shots, it creates a sense of urgency for time to pass quickly.
The purpose of the close up shot of the bell ringing, firstly is to show the audience where the sound is coming from on the track, but also it feels as though it is a release of all of the anticipation and tension in the room from the students waiting for the bell to ring.
This low angle shot of the teacher seems as though it is a point of view shot by from the POV of the school bags on the floor, This creates a more interesting visual and give the viewer a break from the POV shots from Britney's view.
The high angle shot of the corridor in the school acts to show the manic rush of the students trying to get out of class. This embodies the excitement of the song and concludes the wait of getting out of school.
The close up shot of lip syncing serves the whole purpose of a music video, to publicise an artist and their song. This shot allows the audience to properly view the artist singing their song.
