Just Jack- music video

The Video for Just Jack's 'Writer's block' is created in a narrative way, the everyday 'routine' vibe of the lyrics, and the laid back nature of the singer contrasts against the movement taking place with continuous shifting of background and panning of view. The background mainly consists of the aged scrapbook style page of a book, with fast paced black pen scrawl and doodles appearing, some of the objects - a telephone for example, 'ringing' on the page to illustrate the lyrics of the song. It's a fantastical combination of styles, colours and activity, I loved the contrast between the face-on attitude of the singer, and the hand-crafted style of the background. Cartoon characters and a lady with a brown paper bag on her head dancing around a possessed toaster; I can appreciate it for all of its randomness and comic book quality!
