Narrative deconstruction
1. EMOTIONS BY
DESTINY CHILD'S
NARRATIVE
STRUCTURE
Often love songs convey a narrative through
out their music videos portraying a story
3 screens each displaying different real-life
problem each girl who is part of the group is
going to.
The narrative is matched to the lyrics. When
Kelly is singing it is matched with her
problems. With the other two dimmed out.
When Beyoncé is singing the other two are
dimmed out etc. at the end Michelle's
problem is the biggest – her loved one dies.
And the Kelly and Beyoncé over come their
issues to comfort Michelle this is displayed
by the three screens merging into one at the
end. When the 3 girls meet up and support
each other. When listening to just the lyrics
it sounds like the song is about a lovers
relationship. But the video enables a much
wider range of people to relate to the song
instead of just lovers due to the visuals
somehow matching the lyrics.
2. In the first scene it
displays all of the three
girls different and
individual problems.
3. Then it focuses onto Kelly
while she sings her verse ; to
capture the emotions she is
feeling as we found out the
her partner is going off to
the war.
4. Then it focuses on
Beyoncé's story but still
keeps Kelly and Michelle
in focus who are doing
the backing singing.
5. We find out the Beyoncé's lover is
cheating on her and Kelly and
Michelle go off scene to
emphasize the impact of what
Beyoncé has witnessed.
6. Then Michelle calls Beyoncé and Kelly
and tells them that her mother has died
Beyoncé and Kelly come over their own
problems because Michelle needs the
most support now.
7. In each different screens the girls are now supporting
Michelle. With the joining of there emotions the screens
merge into one. Showing that together you can overcome
emotions and support each other.
8. The 3 different stories portrayed
allows a wide audience to be able
to connect with the lyrics as it
becomes more then a love song
but a song that you can relate to
any relationship and the narrative
shows this.
