Does Lady Gaga Bad Romance conform or subvert to the codes and conventions of a typical pop video?
In this i will be explaining how the lady Gaga video has specific aspects. I will explain how the video Conforms and subverts codes and conventions of a regular Pop video. As Lady Gaga is a unique type of pop artist who is famous for her unique style of clothing this also affects her attitude towards her music.
In the video Bad Romance i see this video as subverting from the conventions of a regular pop Video. This is as the videos topic is based on a Bad Romance but the video does indicate many codes which subvert and some which show that this video conforms.
The video is is an amplification as it doesn't stick to the story of the video in regular aspects. Lady Gaga follows the route of Goodwins Theory as this video also has dysjucture within the video. As the video follows a second storyline which isn't relevant to what the topic of the video actually is.
Although i personally think that Lady Gaga subverts it is shown in her video that she can also conforms. she wears a lot of red in her video which shows signs of romance as the colour red generally indicates love, passion and hate. also the use of close ups which is used in her video helps to show her emotion and hate in the video.
This answer is in depth as it has a strong start, however you need to compare what conforms and subverts in this video by writing the different codes and conventions within it.
ReplyDeleteThere is some sign of technical codes however, there is much more codes in this video so that need to be stated.
They have understood the difference between conform and subvert however it need to be finished as much is missing.
