The Prodigy - Voodoo People Critique

The music video was original to The Prodigy. The song was remixed by Pendulum, but it fits well the video. It's fast paced, yet smooth, making it perfect for the song.
The video itself is very innovative. It's a chase scene, and looks so cinematographic, it's like something from a movie.

I would say the theme of the video is something to do with adrenaline. It helps it to fit into the music.
There aren't any special effects in the video. However, the lighting used works well for the theme of the video. It's very dark, and gives off an intense atmosphere. The location starts off in a city, and builds its way into the forrest, and into plain ground.
The location suited the video really well, it helped make the theme stand out. It serves it's function well.

The video uses various camera shots. There are mostly vide shots, taking in the view from far away. It creates a distant effect, making the video seem more haunting.
There are closer shots used when the music gets faster.

This music video is about a chase scene.
A crowd of people are all blindfolded and they are running to a goal. Over time, the crowd gets smaller, and in the end it shows one girl running through the forest to the car at the end. She is presumably rewarded with a bag, which i think is filled with money.
