We was interested collectively as a group about this doing a video to this because the success of the original video.
The video is about the life of a obsessed fan of rap/hip hop superstar eminem Stan. He lives a life of darkness and obsession which seems strange because he has a girlfriend as well as a child in the video which hasn't been born yet and a little brother. His life is dark and hopeless we got this expression by the mise-en scene camerawork editing costumes.
Mise-en scene the lighting is the biggest factor its usually dark to respents the mood of how Stan is feeling due to him being ignored by Eminem the locations that are used fit perfectly because it's a streotype of a obsessive fan due to the basement covered in Eminem pictures. Also the locations are dark dirty to show how everything around him is being ignored due to his obsession of Eminem. His girlfriend also helps to make the video more believe because she's always seems to be letdown by Stan.
Camerawork most of the shots in the video are Close ups shots because this is to show the expressions of the characters and how other characters react.
Editing the editing is kept simple it mainly has continuity editing to keep you interested in the music video.
Costumes the clothing of the characters is kept simple to relate to everyday people.
Overall this video is successful due to its simplicity also its lyrics by how they fit in with the video additionally what we like about the video in particular is how the theme of obsession because people are really into celebrities in these modern era of life. It's a popular video because people can relate to it.
