Scooter - J'adore Hardcore


I chose this opening shot from the music video Scooter - J'adore Hardcore due to the fact that i like the use of lighting as Pae & Sarah perform a synchronised Melbourne Shuffle. As they dance in the shadows it gives a silhouette impression in front of the bold lit up city behind them. I really love this shot and the music video as a whole due to the fact that it makes the Melbourne Shuffle, a lost dance from the 80's, re-noticed. 


This is a very interesting shot due to the fact that Pae is shuffling at numerous different angles and on the floor it has the angle 833 degrees. Furthermore it looks as though he is shuffling in a playground which adds a sense of people wanting the shuffle to be learnt and performed from the playground up, so to speak. 


Here the music video is split up into shots of Pae & Sarah shuffling, shots of Scooter singing and club shots like the one above. This is common in most dance or hardcore music videos as most artists prefer to get many shots for their video whilst performing due to the expensive lighting and the crowds reactions.


This is a close up shot of the Artist Scooter. What i like about this shot and how Scooter appears is the fact that he has piercings and skull rings which are usually associated with bands in the punk genre, as apposed to hard style. 


This shot in j'adore hardcore is a panning upward shot of a female dancer in a club. This is common in dance clubs and music videos as it adds sex appeal to the male audience.
