GAME X TYLER THE CREATOR - GOBLINS VS. MARTIANS
Having chosen a myth with one of the protagonists being male means that I have to consider male styling more than I have in previous projects. The male character in my myth is the murderer and can be interpreted as quite psychotic and mental, therefore I have chosen to research and analyse this specific music video as the two male artists deliver their verses in role as mental supernatural patients. Although this music video is more supernatural horror, I feel it is still appropriate.
Game takes on the role of the mental patient going crazy contemplating the possible existence of goblins, martians and other supernatural beings. The video takes on the location of a stereo typically haunted mental asylum with blood on the walls, flickering lights and other typical elements of a horror music video. He is seen being pushed down the hallway of the hospital by a haggard, old nurse. He raps his bars in the style of a mental patient whilst fighting against his restraints and twitching his head, mimicking behaviour of a mental patient.
The wardrobe choices for Game when he is rapping in the empty blood-stained room work really well, as he still looks deranged and harmful however he is dressed quite well, fitting the requirements of a Hip-Hop video. His light grey contacts give off a menacing look, as his eyes look glassy and empty. His make-up is soft and more suited to men, the dark circles under his eyes have been slightly darkened as well as the natural hollows of his cheeks to make him look more lifeless. His eyebrows and beard have been darkened to make the dark points of his face darkest so he looks tired and gaunt.
