Music Videos: Titanium & Heaven

 Titanium:

The story in the video is about a young boy who is isolated from society. He starts the music video in an empty high school corridor which looks destroyed. The boy then walks down the corridor and we see a teacher who looks panicked and is on the phone to someone, upon seeing the boy she closes the door and looks even more scared.The boy then runs and leaves the school building, followed shortly by the teacher who runs out and meets some police officers and points towards the boy who is riding off on a bike. He then rides quickly back to his home and rushes to pack some things, it is in this scene when we find out that it was a supernatural event that happened at the school, and it becomes clear that the boy caused this. The police then arrive at his house and he rushes to get out through the back door, however it was locked. The boy then uses his powers to summon the keys which are on the table. He then makes it out and begins to trek through the woods. He is eventually hunted down by officers and forced down on the ground, and then he causes another explosion in the final scene of the video which throws back the police officers which were pointing guns at him.

This is a long shot of the boy at the beginning of the Video. It is effective as it shows him alone and isolated at the end of a corridor, and makes him seem small which could reflect how he is feeling. Scared, alone and small.

This is a tracking shot of the boy cycling away from the school. This point of view shows that the boy is being chased by someone or something. This could mean the police or it could symbolize how he has been running away from something inside of him.

This is a medium close up of the boy when we first see him use his powers. It's effective because it shows him confident in himself for the first time throughout the video.

This is a long shot of the boy when he is caught. This is effective as it is the same position he is in when the music video starts, which could show how he has ended up how he started because people wouldn't let him be himself, despite how he was free and happy walking through the woods.
