 Jagged Edge – Lets get married.
This music video is a performative video because throughout the
video we see the musicians and other characters performing roles
that relate to the song.
Mise en Scene
This video has various of different locations in order to fulfill the
storyline of the song. The scene that mostly fulfilled the title of the
song is the scene of a couple getting married. The character were in
traditional attire such as the woman wearing a white dress as it states
in the lyrics of the song, and the man wearing a black and white suit.
This scene characters are used to convey the theme of the song.
However, we see the music group in other parts of the song which
they are singing to the camera in matching attire. These are the
performative scenes of the video.

where a cover of an album is enlarged each time the beat drops. Cuts

has a camera screen that has a record sign at the top right hand side
of the screen. This feature adds more of an dramatic effect to the
