Evaulating Katy Perry



This video of Katy Perry's Teenage Dream, Abbi and I found very enjoyable to watch. This is because the features we thought that the story of Katy and the man's realtionship interesting to watch. Also, the use of different camera shots that the camera man used made the drama more interesting. An example of this is when its a close up of Katy's face, to a scene shot of the cars and the characters to then a extreme close up of the dash board. The locations also make the music video interesting as its fits with the action that's taking place with the beach on a summers day.
We found that the appealing were the characters involved, as they were all reasonably attractive, linking to Laura Mulvey's theory of the male gaze. The colours used in the video are relaxed and pastle colours, which links to the summers day too. The colours also link to being natural, kind of like the make up that Katy Perry's, which is appealing as it links to the age that she's meant to be.
The things we found fun in this video are; the summers day, which is always fun as it reminds you of hot summer days. The fact that there's more people in the back ground, having a good time, dancing, allows the audience to watch them and take in their enjoyment. It also makes the audience believe the video more as its not just all Katy Perry miming.
This video would be easy to re-create as there aren't any special effects, just a lot of differet camera shots. Also, the colours of the clips can be edited to make the colour the same relaxed tone.
