AO2 & AO4 Analysis of Chandelier music video
The music video for "Chandelier" by Sia features 11-year old dancer Maddie Ziegler portraying the melancholic theme of alcoholism through exaggerated dance moves in a run-down apartment. Close-up shots emphasize Maddie's emotional face and movements that mirror the inner turmoil of alcohol addiction. Though atypical for a pop music video by not including the singer, the cinematography and Maddie's performance effectively symbolize the song's message of using alcohol and partying to escape reality.
Sia Video Analysis
The video for Sia's song "Chandelier" features a dancer portraying the thoughts and actions of a "party girl" through her choreography and movements. The lyrics describe the mindset and behaviors of someone dealing with alcohol through partying. Key moments in the video visually represent lyrics like the dancer dropping to represent "pushing feelings down" or grabbing out to represent drinking. Sia's music videos often have a dark tone and color palette matched in this video. While Sia does not appear, the dancer wears a wig iconic to Sia's image, providing an intertextual reference.
