Cold Mailman - My Recurring Dream

 

This music video demonstrates one camera/editing technique continuously throughout the video in order to convey the idea and the lyrics of the song. 

I particularly enjoy watching this music video because of the use of its technique and also the aesthetic style of the video, which is a partly faded look along with the amount of events happening in the frame as the camera tracks only forwards.

The way the camera moves through different scenarios during the video enforces the title of the song “My Recurring Dream” as the camera is always tracking forwards and does not move left or right during this time, yet we are still able to see everything happening in the shot. At the beginning of the video we travel through a hospital corridor and the to many other mysterious places, however at the very end we transition back into the hospital corridor as if the video is going to start again, and re-enforcing the title, it is very interesting to see a music video directly back up the title and the lyrics of the song.
