3.high angle to show shes center and to show the people around her
4.low angle at a wide angle to show the people hes walking with and showing that he popular
5. dutch angle
There are lots of differant shots and angles being uesd in theses videos i think they use these differant angle to show
sk8ter boi- frantic,fast, chaotic
teenage dirtbag- slow,calm,smooth,natural
the camera movement is teenage dirtbag is naturalistic for example, at one point in the video, it uses smooth camerawork to make it look natural this camera work fits the tone of the song because its to match the narrative of the song.

LO-to explore and practice exam style questions
Compare how gender representations are constructed in music videos refer to two music videos you have studied to support your answer?
In the music video skater boy, avril lavine is represented as a tomboy this is shown because she wears darker colour clothes and they are not revealing and challenges the typical female sterotype.
However, in the music video teenage dirtbag the girl surports the female stereotypes because she wears bright colours like a pink and often seen in revaling clothing.
10 Mark Question
Explain how stereotypes are used in music videos. Refer to two music videos you have studied to support your answer?
Stereotypes are used in music videos because they are easily recognisable and so help the audience understand the narrative. For example, in Sk8er Boi, they use a stereotypical representation of males as active,rule-breakers and interested in girls. This is shown through them often skating,biking or driving, often in place they shouldn't be (like on the rooftops),and filming the pretty girl in the car. This fits in with the teenage stereotypes also used. For example, teenagers are also represented as rebellious and out of control this shown throughout the video and also shown riotous when Avril Lavine is on-top of the car and is made to look chaotic by using above shot to show the amount of people surrounding them
