Supernova by Mr. Hudson
"Supernova" is a song by British singer Mr Hudson. It was both co-written and co-produced with hip-hop artist Kanye West, who is featured in the song. The song is a performance and narrative cross the first shot you see is a woman in bed of posh hotel or a big house. There is a slow moving tracking shot that suggest that this is his prize almost. Mr Hudson is shown in the next shot, shown to be dressed in white clothes and he is looking smart. After the first shot Mr Hudson is shown heavily in this music video and the directors of the video have used aspects of Goodwin 6 where the artist is used to promote the music video. This is an aspect that we can use in our video; we can use a main character in the shot at all time or most of the time and have a performance narrative cross. The woman in the shot is shown climbing all over Hudson, this therefore shows that he is some sort of sex god and that he is and leads on my earlier point of her being his prize. When the chorus comes in a special effect shown Mr. Hudson as a supernova this shows his importance in the music video. When this effect is happening he is all alone and he is in a dark room, this suggest that he is very important and he creates light in a dark place. At this point kanye west is introduce with no special effects on like Mr. Hudson this shows that he is less important this is due to it being Hudson’s and he cannot be more important than the main character. The music video uses aspects of dark and light for example in the beginning where he said “and I feel like taking off, let me be a supernova” there is a white room with a woman in bed. This part of the song is uplifting and a happy beet. However when it goes to the second verse Mr. Hudson is in a dark corridor and singing about how other people have more things than he does. He is also singing about how this is wrong this is suggested because. “Out on the lawn we pretend where having tones of fun in this world where we all belong”. First impressions of this music video suggest that it is a happy one, however as the song leads on there is a hidden message which shows that other people have more.
