A key convention of Goodwin's music video theory is intertextual referencing which our video was lacking therefore this was an area which needed to be explored and presented in our music video. Since our band are indie and reflect the coolness of being British we wanted to insert a reference which would be easily recognisable as it can be assumed people who listen to this style of music will be able to identify The Italian Job reference. In order to do this we decided to re-shoot the car scene and turn it into a mini car chase scene, using mini coopers to reference the italian job. However, due to the lack of props and not having the same coloured cars we decided to add our own twist to represent the coolness of being British. We did this by using a car with a union jack on the roof of the car which highlights the indie genre and informs the viewer that the band are British.
A major issue we have been facing recently is the instability of the models due the amount we have moved them, making them become fragile. In order to overcome this issue we decided to build them a skeleton from cocktail sticks to improve their movement and ensure breaking is kept to a minimum. Another issue faced was the tripod since it was to tall to use, however this was easily overcome as we replaced it with a steady pile of books.
