Christina Agularia- fighter



The first shot of this video is of a black moth, this contrast to the usual expectation of something pretty which highlights the dark meaning of the song. They also use this technique with the dancers, they are givin black out fits and crazy untidy hair, very unladylike.It is shot in a warn down, dark dirty building.Christina is placed in a box to dance to simbolise a trapped feeling, the camera ranges between high and low angle shots to show the ups and donws of status within the realtionship from the song.She smashes the box to show her breaking free from being controlled.She breaks free from the darkness, this is shown by her stripping her black clothes and hair to reveal white ones.

I like this video because it is very strong and interesting, it fits really well with the song and slgihtly outdoes the narrative by turning Christina's costume into a black widowspider.
