Black Stone Cherry With 'Lonely Train'


This video by Black Stone Cherry is very similar to the other videos with the black and white affect but what makes this video different to the others as it uses a home camera affect which works well with the location as a bleak and rural area, the sound is almost all just the song apart from the begining which uses digetic sound of a running train. The different parts of the video is reflected by the song for example when the song is slowing down the scene shown is of a boat leaving the port.

The Mise-en-scene is limited in this video as it is based on a natural day to day atributes but the mise-en-scene does includes the instruments and the natural everyday clothing.

The editing is very quick and at the same motion as the song which is shadowing the sound of a train hence the name 'lonely train' some of the shots may have been shot on a train which may explain the motion. There are different camera angles used which picture the artist in different personalities for example using low angles to make the artist look taller is a way to make the artist look more fierce. The shots include random images of American citizens which is the after affectof the band themselves, The way the camera moves and tilts at a fast rate is very affective

The lighting is very limited however the lighting is a lot stronger on the band at play and in some areas which usaly does this before the other shots.
