Shot Count:Technicolour Trainwreck-Speaking In Shadows

Total Shot Count:132

The most common shots featured in this are close-ups, which is common of music videos to capture the star image of the singer (Adam) and of the instruments, but they are also used to highlight the coin flip which is a recurring theme in this video, but also the posters that are displayed at the beginning, middle and end.

The video seems to maintain a relatively even balance between narrative and performance, as the band are frequently shown performing, and Adam is frequently shown singing alone, but there are multiple scenes which show the narrative side of the video, which is that the Adam's actions are denoted by the flip of a coin.
