OASIS

THE MASTERPLANE

The camera continue to zoom in until I changes to a city street

shot .

The camera then goes to a row of houses where 3

men walk out into the street from their houses. They

walk to the end of the street and a fourth man walks

out. It is revealed to be one of the Gallagher

brothers.

The men continue to walk but

one until the reach a single man.

The vocals just begin before they

reach this man.

When they get to the lonely man he

throws a stone into the river. Once the

stone has landed the camera pan up a

ships stern and the 5 men are standing

on the ship. some of the vocals have a

link between what is going on in video.

Once the camera has reached this shot of the

five men it zoom into the distance towards

the pier. It then again changes to the men on

the pier and the boat in the distance. The

camera then changes to a long shot along

the pier. The camera zoom in on a door which

is opened by a doorman.

The chorus then begins and the 5 men are playing. This element of

performance still has close up of the key band members. This

support theory of Andrew goodwin which states that music video

have close ups of band members to promote the band and image.

The image of oasis is the circular sun glasses and the long jackets.

Once the chorus has ended the band walk down the pier and a

bus appears at the end. The travels through a rural area until it

reaches an busy urban area.

The band get off the bus and

walk across the street. The

camera zooms into the buildings

door and it magically opens

Once through the door you go into this never

ending corridor. Also clear link between the lyrics

and what is being shown on the screen. once you

reach the end of this long corridor another door

magically opens. And the chorus begins again.

It then goes back to the chorus and another

performance section except this part is in a big top

circus tent. Yet again this is using close up to show off

the bands image.

Once the chorus has finished it pans out to

reveal a large circus fairground.

The next shot is of Manchester city football club

stadium. This shows more links to their Manchester

heritage.

The five band member continue

to walk the streets as the song

begins to wind down.

They eventually end up back at the original row of

house that they began at and they all go back in

The camera then begins to zoom out and

the camera eventually fades to black.

CONCLUSION

This video has supports many ideas from Andrew

Goodwins theory about music videos

It has clear link between what is being said and

what is being shown on the screen.

it has performance elements even though it is

animated.

It has close ups of the band to promote image and

awareness of the band.
