Stay by Rihanna and Mikky Eko is also a good example as there is a lot of close ups of the artist Rihanna allowing the viewers to see her emotional facial expression while she's sits in the bath. The camera is focused on the star main artist Rihanna with a lot of slow motion on her face while the camera pans around her, this depicts that she is the most important in the music video whereas Mikky Eko is shown majority is long shots and not in focus as much. The artist are also singing to the camera making the video more personal and following Carol Vernallis theory with repeated shots of the artists. You can really see the base tracks from the music video one of the main ones would be Rihanna in the bath and another main one i spotted was Mikky Eko playing the piano and singing.

There are many examples of music videos where Carol Vernallis theory comes in to place, one is Uptown Funk by Bruno Mars. This music videos uses serval jump cuts as its a fast paced song due to this there wasn't many slow motion mostly fast motion but when the song slowed down i did notice the video also slowing down. There is many obvious edits such as jump cuts with the camera moving in time with the music, the music video was edited to the beat. The music video really supports Carol Vernallis theory as there is a master shot (base track) used frequently to give the video a structure nd repeated shots of the artist , the base track is when bruno Mars is with his friends in the pink blazer dancing infront of the camera (shown in the gif above). Majority of the time the artist is making eye contact with the camera as if they are talking to the viewer making the music video more personal.

The theorist Carol Vernallis is very well known for her theory based on music editing. She studied editing and camera work closely in music videos. She observed that edits in music videos. She observed that edits in music videos come much more frequently that in film, that many stand out as disjuncture and that the editing seems to have a rhythmic basis closely connected to the song.
