Chris Brown 'With You'
The video to the song ‘With You,’ begins with a fade in from black to a colour image, close-up shot of singer Chris Brown. The opening is very fast-paced and changes in motion from shots of the star to passing traffic, lights and images of the surrounding street and buildings. His body is not seen in full view, with shots of his feet walking and dancing down roads and close-ups of his face when singing heartfelt lyrics. This is also projected through hand gestures to the chest and face, highlighting the importance of what is being said. Although this is an R ‘n’ B music video it features continuous close-ups of a guitar being played, which is unconventional of the genre. However, Chris Brown’s costume of trainers, hat and hoodie are suited to the genre as it’s very hip and street. R ‘n’ B is all about creating an image that portrays coolness, sex appeal and danger, which Chris brown does. Dancing is also a large part of any R ‘n’ B video and ‘With You’ focuses largely on Chris Brown’s dancing skills to which he is well known and respected for. Although Chris Brown is the major focus of the video, it also includes images of happy couples, whom are obviously in love, the theme of the song.
