Music Video Analysis 2#: Avenged Sevenfold - Gunslinger


This Music video has a narrative. The beginning of the Music video is a brief introduction of meaning to the background of the song. This highlights that there is no structural way of constructing a music video, as long as it is effective on its target audience.
  • It is not an abstract music video
  • Whilst illustrating the lyrics, it manages to also highlight a moral message: war and the effect is has on soldiers
  • Death is underlined: the personal intentions of the band are exposed
possible inspirations for own music video
  • to go against the 'normal' conventions of music video
  • to show target audience more than just narrative
  • involve the audience with the video played
