Star Studies- Slipknot

Comparing two songs and seeing how Slipknot have changed as a band since the first one...
The songs I have chosen represents Slipknot in a heavy way and lighter more universal way. Everyone chooses to see Slipknot in the first way. This individuality is why is why I like them so much.  


  1.  Duality
    The first song I have chosen is duality. It is a heavy song which follows the style of slipknot well.
    The music video is a performance.    
    How they first started out










    2. Snuff-  
        My second song is snuff, it is a much lighter style of music which is unusual for Slipknot,   they received a lot of abuse and discrimination from their fans because they detoured from their favourite style. The video is in a narration style.  
     









    They also changed their masks with the style change, this shows a marked change.

Slipknot: you need a bit more detail about each video including the genre of each video, representation in each video (very different in each!), audience (is it targeting the same audience for both?), specific filmic techniques. You need a couple of sentences about each.
Need to add:
• Email to band/artist
• 2/3 bands analysis in same genre
• Goodwin’s 6 rules and how you will apply these in your video
