Black stone cherry – like I roll

• Black stone cherry’s music video for like I roll is different to most videos. Most videos will have someone singing or dancing, however this band have decided to show their lyrics throughout the video. The images behind the text all relate to lyrics on the screen and lets the audience visualise the lyrics as they are being sung.

• In this video, a lot of camera shots are used, the one that is used the most is a pan camera shot. This shot is when the camera moves from left to right across a scene. The effect it has in this video is that it gives the effect that they are travelling, and this goes well with the lyrics “like I roll” as the song is about them going on a journey.
