2nd video: Dusty Springfield – spooky
Lyrics and visuals: Again due to the performance only type of video that accompanies this song the only link we can find between lyrics and visuals is Dusty Springfield’s animated singing in the centre of the shot. This type of video would have been expected in the early 60’s, when this song was covered by Springfield.
Music and visuals: There is also very little relationship between the music and the visuals with straight cuts acting as the predominant edit throughout the video with the most exotic edits being slow zooms and a pan at the beginning and end. The zooms and pans are not synchronised with the music but simply for glamorous effect coupled with the occasional fade.
Close ups and motifs: The video consists of mid-shots and long-shots no close ups are used in the video and there are certainly no re occurring motifs.
Voyeurism: There is no significant theme of voyeurism to be found in this video either
Intertextuality: Due to the context there are no intertextual references
This video is performance based.
