Genre; Indie pop

 

zeph - friends or not 

color:  there is a lot of orange green and yellow and its filmed in the night/evening

narrative: it switches between her singing on the street and her following her friends because she thinks they offset her on her birthday so she sent him a message in the end and when she enters her room her two friends are in her room with a cake and balloons but then the guy reads the message and blows the candles out. 

The song is called are we friends or not because she thinks the guy doesn't care about the fact that it is her birthday and it seems to her that they aren't friends if he acts like that

in the begging there is a scene where the star persona texts her guy friend asking ,, hey are we still on tonight?'' and he replies ahh sorry something came up after there is shown him telling the other girl that he doesn't know what to say.

it seems like she gets jealous because she thinks that her guy friend prefers to hang out with the other girl ,,Sarah'' than her.

                           

she texted him that she is normally a  understanding person but the fact that she saw him hanging out with the other girl ,,Sarah'' on her BIRTHDAY is something she doesn't understand and also that he has been really fake friend lately so she thinks they should be friends anymore

and then: bye forever I guess.

characters: 

the star persona is zeph, she is a asian girl with cool make up and baggy clothes her hair is dyed (red) and in two messy buns she also walks around with a transparent umbrella.

the other two character are a boy and a girls the boy  seems to be her best friend because in the beginning are shown some polaroid pictures the girl is probably also a good friend but not as good as the boy because there is only one picture where she is shown and also the star persona only texts the guy and not the girl.

CEMS:

there are many close ups and zoom in shots and also tracking shots, and pov shots.  you can see that it is idle pop because of the lighting in the music video and the colors.

it switches between her following her friends after she saw them on the street walking around and just her sitting on stairs and some other places singing the song and listening to music on headphones.
