- The story seems to be about a man who seems to be stressed out about a hard days work and he decides to blow off some steam by dancing about all over the hotel.
- A man is sitting in a lobby when music starts to play some where in the background which he then decides to dance to. Soon in the video you see the man dancing around and flying from wall to wall like peter pan.
- The type of video is a dance video really promoting for people to break loose after a long stressful day.
- The the video makes you want to to groove out to the music
- The genre of music seems like dance so its the ideal song to help people break loose.
- the overall look of the video seems expensive yet simple. It's a simple working class man letting himself go after a hard days work.
- The emotions you feel when you hear this type of music and video makes you feel good about yourself and calms your stresses. The music relaxes the mind and the video helps get the person watching it into a calm and chilled out mood.
Connection to the song
- There could be a connection to Peter Pan because of the way the man seems to be zooming around the room. It seems child like which could express the feelings the man feels when he's breaking free because children don't have worries about everyday stresses such as jobs and bills.
Mise En Scene
- Clothes : The man seems to be in a grey suit with a white shirt and a red tie.
- Locations : The main location seems to be in a lobby of a Hotel of some sort. The scenes flick from the lobby, the escalators and the elevators.
- Props : A bell is used as a prop. Also in the dance sequence the luggage cart is used. Red flowers and fancy vases are used in some scenes. Magazines are used. A painting of boats are used for one of the scenes.
- Lighting : The lighting in the background seems dull and dark but there is emphasis of light on the main character. As the video progresses the lighting begins to lighten up and it seems brighter. When the image of the boats with the man floating on top of it comes up, the image of the boats seem more brighter.
- Actor Movements/Expression : The actor rather stressed at first and then when the music begins to fade in he seems more enthusiastic. He soon bursts into a dance routine with a glow in his face. The signs of sadness and depression begin to wash away with every dance move he performs. There is form of excitement and a sigh or relief when he begins to fly about in the lobby. He begins to feel free and you can tell that from the expressions in his face.
- At the start the camera angle is zoomed out showing the hallway of the hotel but as the opening scene carries on it begins to zoom in on the character sitting on the chair. As the intro progresses the camera zooms in more into the character sitting on the chair.
- As the man begins to slowly get out of his chair into his dance sequence the camera begins to zoom out. The camera slowly begins to follow the man around the hallway as he dances around.
- Half way through the video the man jumps on top of a table. The camera at this point shows the whole body of the man and also the table he is standing on. The camera then slowly begins to zoom in the facial expressions of the man standing on the table.
- After the man jumps off the table the camera begins to zoom out and face the mirrors on the wall. The camera facing the mirrors follows the man as he dances through the mirror corridor.
- When the man jumps off the side of the railings the camera seems to be capturing high shots. As the man flies around the hallway the camera follows the man swishing and swooping through a long shot.
