Analysing Busted Muisc Video


Look at the first minute of the video. Note down how long each shot lasts for - and what happens in each shot. Use terms link connotations to analyse what you see.

The main theme of the music video is the sexual attraction of a schoolteacher from school pupils also members of the band. The shots of the teacher and the connation’s of her actions refers to her as being a sexual object for the fantasy of theses students who seem fascinated by her that she does in the music video in this section of the music video last up to a minute. The contrast to this in this section of the music video is the shots that use the members of the band, who are Charlie Simpson, Matt Willis and also James Bourne.


Examples of this include:

0:04: Eyes of the teacher.
0:11-0:14: Charlie Simpson performing the part of the song which he sings.
0:46-0:51: Band performs in the schoolyard.
What types of shots and camera angles are used? For instance, are there a lot of close-up shots or mid-shots? Are there any high or low angles?

There is a mixture of camera angles and shots in the music video. There are a lot of close-up shots of the teacher and also of the members of the band. This shows the importance of the members of the band because it is their music video and they’re promoting an image to us as the consumer also the teacher is an iconic member of the cast as she is the main attraction for the video. The mid-shots in the music video are of the members of the band when they perform in the schoolyard and also of the other pupils in the class.

Is the video performance-based or does it have a narrative structure? Or is it a mixture of both?

The music video is a mixture of performance-based and narrative-based music videos. This is evident of the use of a story about the members of the band being attracted to one of their teachers at school for the narrative-based part of the music video, it is also evident that it is a performance-based music video because of the members of the band singing the song during the class scenes as well as performing the song with the instruments in the schoolyard.
