Intertextuality

Intertextuality is when a homage or reference is paid to something in a piece of media. Music videos often incorporate types of intertextuality as references such as homages and parodies. Popular examples of intertextuality in music videos are 'Losing My Religion' by REM, 'Telephone' by Lady Gaga and 'Walk' by the Foo Fighters.

For our music video, we're making reference and taking influence from many conventional indie videos, with the indoor band shots being a clear homage to music videos such as 'Wonderwall' (Oasis), 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' (Nirvana) and 'I Bet You Look Good on the Dance Floor' (Arctic Monkeys). We've taken little to no influence from other forms of media.
