The second music video I'm going to list is Linkin Park - What I've Done
The music video starts in the same way it ends - the first and last shots are just reversed to signify open/close or beginning/ending. The video itself is a reflection of the song - the song is intended to be a reflection of guilt, of any bad or wrong-doing. Therefore, the music video takes the viewpoint of mankind, and reflects upon all that is wrong in this world. It's a very emotive video - it's expression lies in the wide variety of clips it uses.
The editing is extremely fast - shots rarely last more than 3/4 seconds. The fast pace emulates chaos and reflects the context of the song.
All shots of the band are either long shots, shots at peculiar angles, or -the most frequently used angle- the rotational shot from below. -unfinished
