5. International love was written Pitbull, Soulshock, Peter Biker, Sean Hurley
and Claude Kelly.
The video shows the duo travelling the world by using CGI to display
different places and setting behind the main actors & star image. Pitbull &
Chris Brown are dressed very sharply and looking casual in the music video
as they rap and sing about living a good/happy life and loving beautiful ladies
across the planet.
Also the music video uses voyeurism and exploits the female actors in the
music video, again according to the conventions of a music video (e.g.
Andrew Goodwin) the females in the music video are portrayed as sexual
objects and at different types their body (curves/parts) are the centre of
attention rather than their personalities.
The girls are also shown doing very seductive and provocative poses that
may fit in to the male gaze theory by Laura Mulvey.
The men/star images (Pitbull & Chris Brown) are also given a lot of time on
the camera to show their dance moves, performance and styles in the video.
The music video also helps to increase the amount of target audience &
listeners because the females are shown covered in the colours that
represent different nationalities e.g. Brazil, America & columbia.
6. The male gaze media theory.
•The woman is seen as a sexual object .
•Focus on her hips, curves (body parts)
•Grab the males attention
•Viewers/Audiences have to watch from a male
point of view.
Following the usual conventions of a modern POP song,
International love also uses a lot of bright lights and also variety
of colours to pass on messages to the audience.
Example is the scene where 3women are silhouetted on a stage
dancing behind a pink & red stage background (In support of this the colour red can also
be used to represent romance)
This made the scene appear to be more seductive than others as it did not give a clear
description of who they but only showed their curves and stance as they posed.
The choice of allowing the girls in the video to be covered in paint with colour representing
their nationalities also helps to get the attention of their target audience better because
they are make them look appealing whilst suggesting that they are beautiful girl all around
the world.
