The establishing shot of this video show us a
man, possibly the artist, running away from
something which we do not find out. The
video starts up with an ELS of the man
running along a railway track, followed by a
low angle CU then a birds eye view from the
side.

As I have mentioned before, the ELS at
the beginning of the video shows us the
wilderness and state a man is going
through. He is running along a railway
track that is probably not in use.
Once the man enters the
barn, we see that the
glasses, chairs and bottles
are covered in dust. It is also
a darkened room, with the
only light coming from
outside.
Right we also see the exact detail
of how dry the wilderness is with
dry plants in shot.

15. Pjanoo – Mise-en-Scene
Here we can see that a man encounters a little man,
possibly from a tribe. He is wearing a costume that is
made out of things from the bush.
From this shot we can get a good look on how
the man is looking. From what it looks like he is a
stereotype of a cowboy, but no guns. He is
wearing jeans, a rolled-up collard t-shirt and an
Indiana Jones hat. He is also carrying a bag which
looks like a bag cowboys carry with money in it.
We can make out that it
is money, an American
dollar note

My final analysis of the man is that we an see he is
