3. At this point in the video, the song plays ‘falling in love,
falling in love’. Here the character is kissing the boy she has
admired the whole time and he finally sees her for who she
is. She has finally received the happy ending she has lined
for., and has’ fallen in love’.
Here the artists are seen walking through the
courtyard for the first time with their new look. This
typical empowering scene re enforces the pop genre
and gives the female roles a dominating shot type.
The colours are strong and bright and this gives ff the
connotations of the genre.
4. Here we can see people dancing in a ball at the end of
a song. This carries forth the pop genre because it
bright and upbeat. They are having a good time and
there are no darker connotations. Normally with pop
songs there is a storyline that is quite clear and focuses.
This finale like scene sticks within that genre.
This character here loosely represents the character of
Cinderella, she is seen her cleaning with a rag and has
the typical blonde hair and tatty clothes. This character
has been seen through many texts through history such
as 2015 Cinderella and a Cinderella story in the early
200’s. These characters all go through the same
catharsis and storyline.
5. This shot here not only shows that she is crying and
upset by what has previously happened, but she is
also looking at herself in the mirror, physically and
metaphorically. She is seeing what is missing in her
life and she decides to make a few changes. This
shot shows that and we can see her looking in their
at herself.
This shot shows that the girls are finally exiting the
darkness and the shadows and moving towards the
light, once again it is both physical and
metaphorical. They are centre stage and in the
middle of the shot, highlighting their importance.
6. This shot symbolises a growth of some sort or a
metamorphosis. This character who represents snow white
is sitting among leaves and shrubbery whilst eating an
apple. This shot constructs the image of her become one
with nature and not only gaining the connotations that
come along with the character but also becoming
something new and growing into a new character after
finding her confidence.
Here we see the bully stare at the nerds as they walk
past her fully transformed into better looking figures.
She stares with hatred and looks malicious and evil. I
have actually been inspired by the original video,
where she is shown in an over the shoulder shot. This
very stereotypical character can been transformed into
many types pf people.
7. Here the artists are seen standing very powerful and
domineeringly. I have taken this idea from the bad
blood video by Taylor swift, where she and her friends
are walking through the fire towards battle, although the
scenario is different the same angle and carter shot is
used, creating very powerful characters and putting
them in a position of ore.
