Tenacious D - Tribute Music Video Analysis

Tribute Music Video

Genre Characteristics:

Jack and Kyle don't look like typical rock stars which shows shows parody
Guitar would represent a live performance of a rock band
The video is not too serious which relates to Jack Black being a comedian
Jack Black rips his shirt which shows chest

Relationships Between Lyrics And Visuals:

'We looked at each other', Jack and Kyle sing these lyrics as they look at each other in the video

Relationships Between Music And Visual:

As the music builds up the the video changes between the stories
As Jack does the electric guitar solo shows the visuals of a flash in the background
As the music starts fades out at the end of the song the devil dies and the story finishes

References To The Notion Of Looking/Voyeurism:

The camera is positioned where the screen would be which gives the audience a different view

Intertextual References:

Dave Grohl from Foo Fighters is in the music that plays the devil
Ben Stiller walks past the booth in the music video
The CD 'Tenaciuos D' at the ending of the video which comes out of the photo booth
