Theory
We have chosen to use Tzvetan Todorov’s theory in our music
video because it is a theory that can be used in any narrative. It was
an easy way for us to understand how to structure the narrative of our
video and for it to be an obvious flow of events so the audience
understands the narrative more and willingly goes along with it. The
state of equilibrium in our music video is at the beginning when all
the students are in the class bored and everything is normal. The
disequilibrium is then when the music starts and the girls jump up and
leave
their lesson because they want to go and have some fun. The recognition
is when they are running
away
because this is when they recognise that it has changed as they are
running and
getting away from teachers and the restrictions of boring school life. The fix is that
they are
out having fun and doing what they like rather than being bored in
school and
that seems to be the new equilibrium that they are not going back to
school and
will instead have fun with their time. However the video ends with a
return or restoration
of the beginning of the video as they find themselves back in the
classroom and
it was all just a dream.
