Textual Analysis of music video - Fu*k the pain away by Peaches

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXiFuU7X_Fo

Narrative - From what i observed, i saw no apparent narrative. The video takes place in a police station possibly in the 1960's, in black and white - with Peaches singing to the lyrics in the cells in the station, and with the officers.

Settings - Police station - inside and outside cells.

Camera angels - Majority of shots are mid shots, with a few close ups.

Character presentations/costume/make up - Police officers dressed in a typical khaki uniform, small boy dressed smartly, Peaches is dressed in a sexy casual outfit with light make up and no outstanding features.

Soundtrack - to begin with, before the song has started to play we are able to hear sirens from the police cars which are on screen - then when the song begins this is all we can hear.

Editing - Black and white effects applied.
