Vanessa Carlton
The star I chose is Vanessa Carlton. She is a well known American singer known best for her song 'Thousand Miles'.
Nolita Fairytale
In the video 'Nolita Fairytale' we see Vanessa walking around a borough in Manhattan called Nolita (North of Little Italy) In the video we see the borough turned into a fairytale with story characters and mystical creatures for example a huge spider and Rapunzel. The use of fantasy within the video is very unique and makes the video interesting. Within the video there are a few details that are very personal to Vanessa Carlton and could be considered enigma codes as only people who know about her would spot them such as how her dog appears in the video. Another thing that is shown within the video that is shown in all the other examples is the grand piano she plays at.
White Houses
In this video we see Vanessa Carlton dancing in a huge studio. This video also has a enigma code behind it as some viewers may know that Vanessa did train in ballet and so the dancing was all done by her. In most of her videos she is found at a huge grand piano and this is the first of my examples that we see the piano. In this video we also see two of Carlton. One of her is dancing and one is playing piano and in the middle we see both scenes merge together.
A Thousand Miles
'A Thousand Miles' also features the piano and shows Vanessa playing her piano and travelling through the streets of New York along the roads. This is the original video when she sits at the piano and it travels out of the garage, although in 'Nolita Fairytale' the beginning of the video is the same but she steps away from the piano whilst it is in the middle of the road and the car smashes into it.
