Representations in our music video

Representations are always very subtle in music videos, however there is always a stereotypical representation of something, whether it be gender, race or age. We could not confirm or break any age stereotype in our music video as every character in the video is of the same age as another. We did confirm many gender stereotypes however, as the male gender in our music video is shown to be strong and dominant, whereas the female gender is shown as a weak victim. This is shown as the main character is the one hunting the female victim and tying her up. Also the main character is a white male which is very typical of the sort of gender and race who are known to listen to 'Radiohead'. Therefore it confirms stereotypes of both gender and race.

There could also be a representation of the mentally disabled in the music video assuming the main character has mental issues. This is represented negatively yet powerfully in the music video. It is negative as the main character causes damage and causes a death if interpreted in this way. Also it is represented very sinisterly. This connotes the fear of the surreal and unknown within everyone.
