That's My Kind of Night by Luke Bryan Music Video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crCqWK3SmRo That's My Kind of Night by Luke Bryan. This video is 3:51 minutes long.

This is the first time I have watched this music video. I'm not a big country fan, but there are a few country/country pop songs that I like. I haven't seen a music video edited like this before. It's interesting.

 It's starts off with someone lighting an arrow on fire Then he shots the fiery arrow into the sky and it lands on a pile of wood and starts a huge bon fire. The music doesn't start till 32 seconds into the video.  They show Luke Bryan singing and dancing on his truck. The scenes go with the beat of the song. They pause a clip for a second and it's in black and white. Then they show Luke Bryan on half of the screen divided by a diagonal black line with the bonfire on the other side of the screen. Then they show a close up of a young woman in the water then the screen is divided into three sections: the young woman in the water, a close-up of hands clapping by the bonfire, and a close up of people walking. The video continues with this pattern through the entire video. They show a scene of something or someone, it pauses the scene for a second then turns it into black and white then the screen is divided 2, 3, or 4 times with color scenes. It's hard to explain. The whole video pretty much takes places at night by a lake in a huge field with a bonfire and a lot of young people dancing.    
 


 This was the first scene I was talking about

I like the introduction in the beginning, but I think it's a little long. I'm not sure how I feel about this video. I kind of  like how it's edited, but then again a don't. It's different. I like how some of the scenes pause and turn to black and white. I like the different cuts and angles in this video. They show a lot of different scenes in a short amount of time. The music video fits perfectly with the lyrics of the song. Maybe if they didn't do so many screen divides I would like it more. I think it's an interesting edit, but I think they over used it.
