Redundant Features
There is a band performance throughout the video, there is more of a focus on the lead singer but the shots go from the singer to the band as a whole and they are all playing instruments. Another redundant feature was the idea of a romance with this girl, which seems to be what the song is about.
Entropic Features
The main entropic feature was how photos were incorporated into the video, I thought this was a very different and different idea. It also shows how creative you can be when it comes to editing and creating effects.
Shots
There are many long shots and mid shots used, with close ups of the lead singer and especially the love interest. Many of the shots go from a mid shot to a long shots especially during the scenes with the repetitive photos. The shots seem to change so much because throughout the whole video the shots bounce off of each other and there is a lot of zooming in and zooming out going on.
Edits
From what I can see the only cuts used are straight cuts, this is because the video moves quite fast and it's hard to tell and you don't notice the cuts.
Mis-en-scene
The band wears suits during the whole video, where as the female characters costume changes quite a few time. She wears quite casual clothes that seem to go with the theme of what's in the photograph. Apart from the photos the backgrounds used are quite plain, and are just black and white.
