Clip analysis

I analyzed a clip form white chicks starting from 0.50 seconds in to 9.30 minutes. This is a girly chick flick comedy. The clips start in a garden setting very bright and colourful mise en scene, which shows the girly side of the film. We soon see the girls in their stereotypical mood as they are talking about shopping and getting excited. We then see them in the car singing along to a song, which brings out the comedy side of the film, as they are very theatrical and over the top and over acting all the actions, which makes the film funnier and better to watch.
There is then a sudden change when they begin singing to rap music that is a shock to the stereotypical mood as some of the girls think it could be seen as racist but yet again this just keeps adding to the comedy of the film. The clip carries on with the bright and colourful lighting and up beat mood. We see the girls shopping which brings out a happy mood and there are many comedic moments slipped in which makes the film ore appealing for people.
There are a few funny innuendo's which can be taken in many ways which makes the viewer think of the way in which it should be taken this will appeal to a wider range of people with different types of humor. as they try on the clothes we see the over blown versions of reality when girls go shopping but very theatrical and over the top we see a slight difference when she comes out of the changing rooms and breathes out and their is non-digetic music that shows the horror when she rips her clothing. The pace of the film then changes as they come out of the shop as the girls purse is stolen and they run after the thief this will shock people as girls are suppose to be delicate and gentle not aggressive and running. As she retrieves the bag the film resumes to its girly stereotypical genre. The clip is an overblown version of a english girly film. They use all the stereotypical things but add to them and make them bigger and better and more appealing to more people and different age ranges.
