Intertexuality

Intertextuality is when a music video makes reference to film, TV, video games, cinema, fashion and photography.


An example of a music video making reference to film is Madonna's 'Material Girl' this music video makes reference to Marylin Monroe's 'Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend'.

An example of TV is the Beastie Boys 'Sabotage' this makes reference to TV programs such as Starsky and Hutch, the video is like a spoof police show.




An example of a video game is Robbie Williams' 'Let Love Be Your Energy', this video is made to look like it is a video game.
