Furthermore, wipe transitions are used in the video to showcase a change of location. A cross-dissolve transition is cued by the heavy, melancholy bass-line and is unusually used to cut in closer towards the town as opposed to signal a passing of time. Quite unconventionally, the music video opens with a slow high-angled tracking shot (ties in with Lowry and the concept of 'perspective') which provides an overview of an industrial-esque Manchester and the viewer is invited into the run-down streets of Burnage (where the Gallaghers were raised). The animated video pays tribute to L.S Lowry and amplifies the journey or the masterplan the Gallagher brothers took from working-class Mancunians to being, in my opinion, one of the greatest rock n' roll bands of all time. Every time I watch the music video for 'The Masterplan', I am reminded of just how much I love Oasis. ![]()
