Maybelline 'That Boss Life': case study & wider reader

Close-textual analysis: Cinematography: camera shots and movement: Zooms- fast paced, draws in audience, audience involvement, mimics vlogging. Tracking zoom when their makeup is done. Close up of the product (mascara)- enhances the success of it. Close up of the eyes- demonstrates the product in use and how good it is. Narrative & Genre: narrative theory and sub-genre: Heroes; they give a transformative influence (quest). Quest to get mascara- luxury/quest for fame /perfect. The bell boy is considered as the 'donor'- he gives them the gold suitcase. Mise-en-scene: costume and props: Juxtaposition between costumes.
