Paramore reference

Paramores Misery Buiness video is quite a stereotypical vdieo because it features some of the main conventions within music videos. Its similar to our video becasue it too is set in a school. This is because it appeals to the actual target audience, they are either at school or they have just been at school, in sixth form for example. Our audience is similer, this si also why our audience during the performance during the end of the video are also this age, they are teenagers at school.
Another key feature is the use of band motif and the logo situated around and in the video. for example during the shots of the band performing in a room the room focases around the word Riot! which is the name of the album. It also implies some rebellion within the genre which is stereotypical to the target audience. We also include this type of rebellion, we are implying that anyone can be confident and rebel against the label that they have been given within school e.g. Geek, Goth, Emo. I think our video really explores some of the ideas of stereotypical images and labels within media. with regard to visual representation we use the use of costume and props to reiterate the image further. We tried to include some visual links with the lyrics, this is similar to other bands within this genre bands such as People in Planes and Future in Forestry. For example we use a poster that says the lyrics within the song on it. This draws the readers eye towards it and makes then think about what the lyrics actually mean.
