Review
Music video director Ruben Scott‘s most recent release is a performance video for “369,” featured on the GRAMMY website. Scarlet Parke, who wrote and produced the track, stars in the video, making her a triple threat.
A good music video can be a powerful tool in conveying the message of a song and creating a visual experience that complements the music and the artist. Ruben does just this in the video, using a vivid red background to draw the viewer’s attention to Scarlet. The background creates a visually stunning effect that sets the mood and atmosphere of the video.
Ruben uses lighting, color, camera angles, and editing techniques to highlight Scarlet, who is dressed in all white with a red tint. As you watch the performance video, you are pulled in, as if you are watching the performance live.
Overall, the music video for “369” enhances the listener’s experience and creates a lasting impression, which is the ultimate goal of any director.
