Analysis of music video: Weird Al - Tacky

This video and song isn't an original version, it is a parody of an already existing song and video. I thought that analysing this video coupled with a comical song would be beneficial to my research into music videos because I can then explore a larger breadth of conventions of different themed videos and songs and, then look at the link between the two.

Analysis:
The very first think that I noticed about this video was the fact that it's a parody - I noticed this from the fact that the lyrics were very different, and a comical version of the original song "Happy", and the mise-en-scene made it very clear. By this, I mean that the costumes were comical which was appropriate due to the fact that the purpose of this song and video is to entertain in a comical way. Also, the location is a mix of run down and fancy which is comical due to the fact that the viewer is slightly confused at what they are trying to get at with the location. The run down locations on the video reflect the "tacky" lyrics in the song and the fancy places contrast the ridiculous costumes that the 'characters' wear in the video making it even more comical because it is bizarre and weir.
This is something that I should keep in mind if I end up making a comical music video to a comedy song - contrast, stepping outside of the box, being weird and bizarre on purpose is often comical in current media products.
