Sid - Enamel (Music Video Reference)

In this post, I will be discussing some music videos we will take reference and inspiration from.

The second reference is a Visual Kei Japanese Rock Band “SID” and their song is entitled “Enamel”. Enamel is featured in an anime programme “Kuroshitsuji Book of Circus”. It is the third season of Kuroshitsuji in which continues the journey of revenge of the main character, Ciel Phantomhive and his demon butler, Sebastian Michaelis.

The music video is dominantly performance with a hint of concept. Their concept shows an apple and is the little snippets of a rotten apple shows a foreshadowing. This relates to the anime programme Kuroshitsuji Book of Circus as it perhaps shows the consequences of pursuing revenge. It also relates to our intertextual reference to Dorian Gray.

This is the opening of the music video which shows an apple surrounded by wires which connotes confinement, relating to the transformation of out main artist on our music video Monster.

Foreshadowing




The chains connotes again confinement which relates to the lyrics of our chosen song "I'm only a man with a chamber who's got me..."

We will be incorporating the idea and the mid shots of each member of the band to show the we are still adhering to the codes and conventions of rock/indie genre.
