green day american idiot video




Mise en scene
-       Green back ground
-       Green guitars
-       Green liquid
There is a great deal of green used as a theme in the music video, as its iconic to the band.
Another reason why green was used was to emphasise the envious personality that are held.

Clothing
-       Black clothes
-       red ties
-       Green contact lenses
The choice of dark colours emphasises the green eyes on the people, as green is the dominant theme of the video.

Men
-       Energetic
-       Eccentric
-       Morbid
They run around the stage showing a lot of energy and excitement, which helps put their opinions across in their lyrics.
In one shot of the video, the singer uses his tie as a noose, which helps show the desperateness of their situation

Women

-       none present
The absence of women is quite often noticeable in punk bands, as their songs are usually about the betrayal of women
