Post Modernism

All the people mentioned above are closely recognised with modernism creating pieces of work that will in years to come still be recognised.
Post Modernism is a movement away from modernism and they want the audience to be conciously aware that they are watching a text. There are two ways of doing this:

• Technical - camera focusing
• Intertextuality - illusions

The following three things all make you aware of other texts (allusions).


Intertextuality - making reference to another text. For example, in Lady Gaga's video for telephone they make reference to Kill Bill.


Parody - mocking the original text e.g Scary Movie


Hommage - celebrating the original text
