Paolo Nutini- Pencil Full of Lead

<

Genre Characteristics- Smooth Jazz/Pop e.g the pace and style of music, the instruments used and the unique style of Nutini's voice.

Relationship between Lyrics and Visuals- Dancers match obvious actions and movements to the lyrics being sang. E.g 'Button's to my coat and a sail for my boat' dancers act out unbuttoning a coat and the movement of sails on a boat, there is distinct reference to words shown through actions.

Relationship between Music and Visuals- The music quite obviously dictates the style and pace of the dance routine. E.g Dancers routine is fast paced like the song, the dance routine is not modern and uses steps which look like they were used in the 50's and 60's, which ties in with the genre of the music.

Are there close-ups of the artist and star image motif's?- Few CU's of Nutini at the very beginning of the song, show's he is made out of clay.

Reference to the notion of looking- all the way throughout the song, Nutini is slapped for acting inappropriately towards a dancer, the camera focuses on the dancers alot during filming, alot on specific body parts aswell, which refers to the constant use of male gaze.

Is the video category illustration, disjuncture or amplification? mostly amplification but the video shows parts of all 3, Nutini is made out of clay in the video which has no reference to the song.
