George Ezra- Blame it on me

                                   Analysis of the video-

At the beginning of the video there's an old man who looks quite silly who tells the singer not to follow the 'yellow brick road' (the scene is presented with a mid-close up shot). There's also (direct) mode of address used by the old man who stares at the camera in turn looking into the audience's eyes and talking to them. That makes the audience feel involved because it looks like the old man is looking straight at them. The singer doesn't listen to the man (I believe that not many people would due to the costume/clothing he is wearing). The clothing does make the man look a bit silly and childish. However, the grey hair and beard make him look wise and that could make some people (or audience) listen to his warning.The warning in the video prepares people for something interesting (negative or positive) to happen. It warns the audience and foreshadows that something negative probably will happen because the old man is making sure that the singer really agrees to his decision of following the 'yellow brick road'. 

The title screen states 'Blame it on me'. However, the singer is looking and walking away from the screen and is faced backwards to the camera which could portray that he doesn't really want to take the blame which suggests that he is going against what he's saying. The title screen is also quite intriguing because it grabs the audience's mind with 'blame it on me'. The audience for sure wants to know what the blame is; that will make them continue watching the video. This once again is a mid shot, it is also a dolly shot because he is followed by the camera.

Over the shoulder shot portrays a happy child after attacking the singer with a toy. That could be a visual metaphor (the child being life and the singer a normal human). The lighting becomes soft lighting in this shot and he background becomes darker which could signify the negative thing that just happened to the singer and it could also signify that the child is evil/mean. 

There's a bird's eye view shot at 0:55 seconds in the music video.
