Music Video 1 (Katy Perry - Roar) -Research-


  • The video for 'Roar' is performance as she is lip singing along side the lyrics.
  • This is a typical female video as Katy is seen as erotic, and almost sexualised, even though she is meant to be seen as brave and surviving in the wild.
  • The video is shot in a unrealistic set, this means everything is very well lit and vibrantly coloured, like a Hollywood movie set would be.
  • There is CGI seen in the music video.
  • The narrative is like a mini film, it has a clear beginning, Katy is left in the wild with her 'boyfriend' who is an antagonist. Middle, the 'boyfriend' killed my a tiger and Katy meets a monkey and an elephant learning skills to survive in the jungle. And end, Katy is faced with the tiger and overcomes it through singing. 
  • The images that the audience see don't match the lyrics - the word 'roar', and many other lyrics, are used in a metaphor and do link with the lyrics.
