Narrative - Michael Shore (1984)

Shore argues that music videos are just recycled styles.

Happy days was a sitcom set in the 1950's, they integrated scenes from the actual sitcom.
It is the same narrative, boy meets girl, but using media figures and recycles cultural references.
Characters from the sitcom are edited in, the leather jacket is a code for rebellion.

A 90's music video set in the 70's vision of the 50's - multiple levels of diegesis.

British Social Realism
Simulated experience, image and style scavengers.
Conventional editing
Showing how the images are manipulated.
Information overload from the internet, meaning you know more than you need to, we have all the information we need at our fingertips. How do you create something that doesn't exist.
Decadence, State of moral deterioration.
because of the information at our fingertips we are treated to instant gratification.
