music video evaluation


Last Friday Night – Katy perry


Genre- POP
This music video corresponds to pop genre conventions in many ways. Such as the vibrant costumes and colours. This relates to the party culture as seen on television and commonly recreated by teenagers who are the target audience of the pop genre and of this video.

Lyrics/Visuals
Nearly all actions in the video relate to the lyrics directly, such as ‘there’s a stranger in my bed’ – there’s a half naked boy in her bed and ‘pictures up’ – as she is browsing though the photographic events of last night.

Music/Visuals
There are party people dancing in time to the beat of the music. Also, there is a Mexican wave type movement that tracks to Kenny G playing the saxophone to correlate with the saxophone solo in the track.

Voyeurism
Examples of voyeuristic shots would be looking over kathy’s shoulder to see the photographs of last night on her laptop, showing her embarrassing moments.
