Van Halen Running With The Devil:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1uz_aDo0YA&safe=active
The song 'Running With The Devil' is the very first song on the first Van Halen album that was released on record.
The first bit of the song before the open bass line is quite interesting because they were just blares of car horns and this sound was created by Eddie by using a whole bunch of car horns, for some reason a car battery, and then a foot switch then finally the sound was recorded then played in reverse so the sound would sound like it was dying basically. Now when you hear this song being played you would think that Eddie would be using his Frankenstein guitar which was black and white for this album, except he was not he was using one of his shark guitars that he created but it was red and silver. As well with this video, originally I thought that the band used dry ice for the smoke effect but I think that the band used smoke machines or fog machines. As well in this music video the camera techniques are very straight forward because this was a 1978 video and the technology used to record music videos like this were not as complicated as it is now, the shot types in this video focus mostly on mid shots and close up shots but one one occasion an extreme long shot.

ozzy osbourne let me hear you scream
Ozzy Osbourne 'Let Me Hear You Scream:'
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rsa4HktvsU4&safe=active
The video "Let Me Hear You Scream" is a very distorted music video, the reason why it is called " Let Me Hear You Scream" is because the film is like one mini horror film that runs for three minutes and twenty eight seconds.
The visual of how Ozzy is presented is very strange, mainly because at the start of the video it looks as if he is a demon, maybe the director of the music video wanted Ozzy to look like this so it gives the name of the song some black magic. Other visuals in this music video include Ozzy's face being fitted or fixed on to a robotic mouse and spider, mainly because it will creep the audience out and as well it will look supernatural and absurd. Another strange feature to the song is the visual to what we see during the guitar solo of the song, which starts at two minutes thirty seconds, which starts with the rolling harmonic. Now the visual that we see during the solo is that Ozzy's face has now been fixed on to the body of a bat, the reason why I think they used a bat in this music video is because Ozzy is famous for biting the head off a bat at most of his concerts and in the film "Little Nicky"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wYMC4G8zeM&safe=active. Then the building that surrounds him and the band collapses around them, then you see his eyes roll back into his head and then finally you see him and this girl with black blood coming out of her mouth and Ozzy with human blood coming out of his mouth. but what's interesting about the bleeding mouth effect is that the camera focuses on him and the girl's mouth and the camera goes into an extreme close up shot and the same thing happens when the viewers see Ozzy's eyes roll back into his head, this would scare the audience who are watching this. The audience or viewers who are watching this music video would also think that he was possessed by the devil or something, just because of the way he is acting in the music video and again other things will creep out the audience, one of those is before the solo, you see Ozzy injecting himself with some sort of green stuff this would make the audience think he was insane.

miracle man ozzy
Ozzy Osbourne Miracle man:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j34juXrJWqw&safe=active
The song Miracle man is a song written and performed by Ozzy Osbourne for the album "No Rest For The Wicked",with guitarist Zakk Wylde.
The song miracle man is geared towards Jimmy Swaggart, but in this music video he is known as Jimmy Sinner, the reason for this is because Swaggert is a hypocrite after being found out that he is addicted to sex and drugs. The surroundings for this music video are unconventinal mainly because firstly it is set in a church, this is understandable because the name "Miracle Man" was also given to Jesus, but one thing that I cannot understand is that throughout the music video in the church there are pigs surrounding the site. In this music video the camera focuses on one extreme close up shot but throughout the music video the camera focuses on either close up shots or mid shots this is very conventional in music videos.

van halen without you
Van Halen without you:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lT8RdKN8u9w&safe=active
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYhOegeQwRM&safe=active
This video by Van Halen is from the year 1998 from the album Van Halen III, this reason why the album is called "Van Halen III" is because when this album came out the band was on their third replacement singer after the departure of the band's second singer "Sammy Hagar."
The video looks as if it was filmed in a place like Antarctica, but I believe that it was a studio built setting, and I also believe that "dry ice" was used to create the cold depth feeling for the video. The reason why I think that the setting for the music video was made in the studio is because the band would not be able to play in temperatures such as -3,-2,-1. Firstly because of health and safety and, also, the music video is moderately fast so if the band did go to one of these places they would probably be playing slowly as well as freezing their nuts off. So to improvise this environment the producers of the music video used artificial ice which is made from glass so it looks realistic to the audience when the music video is shown.
