Music Video Presentation

The Cure - Close To Me

The setting of the video is very cramped so there is little room for the band members in the video to move around and do much performance. However, there is a performance element to the video with clips of band members singing and playing a mini keyboard. There is a narrative part to the video due to the puppets and the wardrobe scenes of the video.

Closeup shots are the most common shots in the video which emphasises the cramped setting of the video. Longshots are also used to show the surrounding areas of the video and the wardrobe falling from the cliff.

The lighting inside the wardrobe is quite low and much of the lighting comes from small slits through the door and other similar ideas.
