Intertexuality- Telephone Lady Gaga

Intertextuality- Telephone Lady Gaga
The music video Lady Gaga telephone is shown to make intertextualtiy reference to what we see in most thriller movies. In this video we see many aspects/ conventions used in thrillers such as prison, police guards and people fighting. The intertextualty shown also includes reference to brands and ironic symbols.

This is an intertextuality reference to most thrillers
and day to day bases. 
Screen shots from Lady Gaga telephone- reference to Intertextuality

This is shown to give us intertextuality reference to a character who is shown to appear in a christmas carol. The accessories that she is wearing makes us see this making us therefore make reference to other films/ music videos

Above is shown to be an LG phone with virgin media network.
In the above image we see one of the people who work at the prison are on an actual dating site.  This is clearly making intertextual reference to what people do in society.

In the above screen shot we see reference to beats by Dr Dre laptop is being displayed as a marketing method towards the audience. This could give reference to a fashionable trend as we see they are the newest and up to date products for all young people.
The Pussy Wagon logo is referred to more than once in this music video giving the audience some intertextuality reference in the importance of it. The Pussy wagon is an ironic symbol from the movie 'Kill Bill'. Throughout the movie we see the female protagonist is the most important character who is shown to be dominate over everyone as she has the most control, this is also in reference to the music video as we also see two female characters who are also represented to be more dominant than men.

Overall we see intertextuality is used well in this music video as it makes reference to other thriller movies as well as society as a whole.
