John Burger - Men act, women appear. The partner in the music video appears in the mirror.
Hyper real shot. Baudrillard, we used this shot to show how the protagonist is mentally unstable.

Walter Lippman - stereotypes of villian vs protagonist, opposites in the piece. good stereotype and bad stereotype

David Gauntlett - Transvestite  - playing with identity. playing with representation.
David Chandler -Realism.  Everything is a representation. Realism - location in video - christian band.

Roland Barthes - Everything is a myth, using commonsense, these events didnt actually happen. However we see the band and think that they are like that, they do dress like that.
