Chet Faker | Gold

Thought Beats: Smooth and minimal. Electric guitars are faded and the piano acts as the main beat. There are drums, but not many.
Visuals to song: The song matches well with the music video due to the fact that the faded music blends in well with the eerie road and the dancers coming out of the darkness - similar to how Chet's voice emerges out of the slow, rhythmic electro.
Technical Aspects: Like many of Murai's video, there is only one tracking shot. Near the end, it pans to Chet Faker would seems to have been in a car accident - then cuts to the backs of the rollerskaters, as we are now following them. This would have been accomplished in the editing process.
Star Image: Chet Faker appears in the music video only at the end. He is lip syncing, but no looking directly at the audience. The roller skaters, however, do.
Narrative & Performance: The narrative is vague and abstract. It seems to just be a sequence of events hat could refer to the song's lyrics, "you got to know, I'm feeling good"--with him expressing his love for one of the roller skaters that he's watching: "you could be the one for me."
Portrayal of women: The three roller skaters are serpentine and seductive. They are wearing very little clothes, whereas the man is in full dress and covered by the car; he also has a beard, if that's relevant to instilling gender stereotypes.


I really like the simplicity of this video, and it gave me ideas for costumes and colour schemes: Black and yellow.
