Marilyn manson - The beautiful people

The Video for marilyn mansons the beautiful people is, i think, i ironic because all the people you can see are not exactly beautiful. The costumes and the make-up have been done to make them look odd, to make them not look human. There are alot of wierd costumes in this video and alot of wierd props.

There are alot of flashing images in this video, especially at the beginning, the first 30 seconds of it is just flashing images of strange things.

The images in this video are shocking, because they're a bit disturbing and gurungy, it doesn't show things you see every day, is more like something from a nightmare or a horror film. That kind of idea links in with my idea for "stretched on your grave", the title is a bit shocking and i was to incorporate that into my storyboard.

I think visually the video is attention grabbing, because it is just in you face strange, you don't want to look but you have to sort of thing. I think how the colours are used is a main factor, the colours are minimal and dark. Theres only like black, grey, white, red and green used, obviously there are variations on these colours used also.
