We analysed a short video before we decided to make a music video. The controlling behind the short video is; a girl that is neglected and she has been brought up tough. At the start of the film the girl is shown in a big white coat, with her hair scrapped back and big gold hooped earrings, we find out that her parents have been divorced and the father neglects her. The girl is only 13 years old and comes across innocent and vulnerable. She doesn’t seem to have much guidance and has brought herself up. We find out that she has got ‘good at hiding things’ and she talk about the ‘worms being in the toilet’ this all foreshadows hiding things.
Throughout the short video she sings Brittany Spears, she has a dream to become ‘someone’ and imitates her. The lyrics symbolise how she is feeling about her life ‘my loneliness’ the sound of irony ‘I’m not that innocent’. Ambient sound making it more in-depth and the emotional engagement shows she is lonely and bitter and that makes us feel sorry for her.
The location of the short film is set near a canal which is dark, cold, depressing, the graffiti shows the type of area she is in. after her deposing of her child she feels relief and can move on with her life.
