Narrative theory applied to the music video 'Good Girls' by 5 Seconds Of Summer
From looking at Andrew Goodwin we can relate to music videos and their narrative from our own experiences. As the audience of the genre and band themselves, the majority of the audience will be in education or left higher education recently so memories of education are vivid. Therefore they can relate to stereotypes within education and relate to devilish behavior.
In terms of Sven Carlsson, the video is a promotional tool. As the majority of the audience are teenage girls they will want to see the band within the music video, therefore snippets of band performance have been added to the narrative shots of the girls misbehaving at the school. At the start of the video there was also shots of the band talking and showing personality, which is also what the audience wants to see. After all they are selling themselves and the record by producing visuals alongside the sound track.
