This
music video is a sure fire pop genre due to its many stereotypical traits. This
is down to the different aspects of mise en scene which have been used. For
starters, much like the Anna Sun music video, there is a red cup party which is
focused on a lot. This is done because drinking is seen as ‘cool’ and the
‘cool thing to do’ and so it would have to be in a pop music video so that
people could relate to it easily. Whilst the party is going on, there is a
large focus on the male female dancing that is occurring, this is because love
is a large part of a pop music video as it almost gives the viewer and
favourite and someone to root for, much like a film.
Focusing
on certain aspects is different in every music video. In the walk the moon one,
there was a large focus on the surroundings and the misfits dancing. Whereas in
this video, there is a huge focus on the main singer as that is what the
viewers are there to see and they would want to make the singer appeal to
everyone. However, the camera is not the only person/subject that is following the male
singer. The females in the video are all seen to be touching him or staring at
him the majority of the time which shows the viewer that he is attractive and
lusted after by others, almost competitive.
A large
object that occurs in almost all music videos is the cars and the girls. There
are almost always cars and in this music video it is no different. There are a
large amount of posh expensive cars which show wealth and power within the
group of men.
