MIS-EN-SCENE
The performers in the video all wear independent styles of clothing.
The style of independent clothing worn is reflective of modern day clubbing
and party scenes. The opening is similar to the horror film 28 days later where the setting is barren
and desolate so the setting mirrors this.

the non ip syncing dance shots.

EDITING
Editing includes cuts and panning which are performed in a smooth manner all culminating to show a well polished and well edited music video that follows key and tempo changes within the song.

PERFORMANCE
The performance is energetic and focuses mostly on the performers who deliver a fast paced highly energetic and physically demanding performance that helps portray this song as a typical modern day clubbing song
