Intertextuality in Music Videos What is intertextuality? It is an idea that any text has been influenced and shaped by texts that have come before it. (anything read or seen in the case of movies) Therefore no film exists on its own and consciously or not all films borrow ideas from other films, past or present. Nothing exists on its own. To the right is an example of this. Who is intertextuality important to? writers directors audience Family guy and The Simpsons are two TV programs that like to use intertextuality. But they use it in a more comedic way to gain humour from their audiences.
