Things My Father Said by Black Stone Cherry



i enjoyed this video because its a great song thats a tribute to the singers father who died, and the video is a tribute not only to his father but all fathers out there and how each and every one not matter how have an effect upon everyones life, the narrative follows the band as they return to there hometown, to the place where they used to practice when they were younger and how they spend time amongst there loved ones, it also shows the effects of fathers upon people and how much they each miss them, with shots of people who have lossed there fathers holding pictures of the fathers up or have an object that they hold dear to them because it was there fathers, they also show shots of the band interacting with there fathers, some performing peices of music with them, an indicator of how there fathers encouraged them to play music, the use of pictures of peoples fathers in the video of them holding the pictures or haveing the pictures laid out is very effective, and the use of the band with there fathers or with there friends is very good, the song is a tribute to there fathers and how people should stay with the people they love and care about and i think its shows this perfectly, the video is made using simple camera shots, with little effects apart from the camera effect where it appears to be shot on an old camera like a super 8, the target audience is for people who have lost there fathers which can range to any age, this is a beautiful video, it is heartfelt and a great tribute to all fathers out there.

  1. Great start, can you add your images of your handwritten annotations and then begin to plan your visuals with Jon.
