Mise en scene

Marshmello has a mascot head piece


which is part of his identity, the artist
beneath the mask is anonymous. This
head piece was inspired by electro
house music producer and DJ
deadmau5. He always wears white
clothing in all his videos. According to
Richard Dyer paradox of the star it
must be ordinary and extraordinary
therefore, Marshmello fits with his
ideology.
Camera
In the video Alone there were lots
of close-ups and mid shots of the
artist which fits in with Andrew
Goodwins theory in terms of
demands to see artist. In addition
the camera relates to the genre
characteristics by showing shots of
the electronic instrument.
Furthermore, Sven E Carlson would
say that Marshmello is an electronic
shaman.
Editing
Fast pace editing matches genre,
in the beginning song matches
beat with fast cuts from 0:20-
0:23.
