Intertextuality in music videos.

Intertextuality is using someones elses work and making it your own by putting your own twist into it. Also it is where a music video shows parts from a film which the song appered in. Going with all that anything that represents something from something else counts as intertextuality.

An example of this would be 'Jai Ho' by Pussycat dolls. This is because at the end of the song the do a dance from the movie Slumdog millionairre and also shows clips from the atcually movie.

This is a good example of intertextuality becuase it is chorographed in the same way and also the mise en scene looks similar. The song also relates back to the film by using the same culture. The Pussycat Dolls use a different location but use the same theme within the music video.

Another type of intertextaulity would be from the movie Charlie and the Chocolate factory and Katy Perry's Carlifornia girls. This would be becuase in her video she has made it seem as some sort of fantasty land where it is full of candy and you can it the candy.

These two photos from parts of the movie and the music video. This is showing intertextuality becuase Katy Perry is using the idea of a fantasy land from Charlie and the chocolate factory but put her own twist on it to make it look more femine and more about her and the styles she like.
