The Rolling Stones - Jumpin' Jack flash
In the video for Jumpin' Jack Flash by The Rolling Stones, we see that the director has used a lot of close ups of the individual band members to show them as the "stars" of the video, especially singer Mick Jagger, who gets the most because he is the lead singer of the band.
The video would most definitely attract a young audience of around 15-24 yet, because of the bands image in this video, young girls would also be attracted but the style of music would mostly appeal to a male audience, also because the music video is from 1968 older audiences may like it too for nostalgia or they are older fans that have stumbled upon the video or song.
The genre is - like Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughn - Blues Rock and this links into the idea of our video because it has a performance aspect to it like the other two and has a very late 60s feel to it.
There is no intertextual references that we can currently pick out, but the some of the make seems to be influenced by Westerns (the singers face paint) and the fashion is very 60s, which could be referencing the "Swinging Sixties" some of the make up seems to be heavily influenced by Indian Culture and Sci-Fi Films (such as the patterns on certain band members and the colour of the make up).
