Cleaning out my closet's video is narrative based as it has a story behind it. Most of Eminem's videos are narrative as they are short filmed videos. In the cleaning out my closet video Eminem is going back to his childhood and sharing his bad experiences to do with family and life with us. He shares how his father left him and how much he hates him. Eminem also shares his emotions toward his mum and how she’s hurt him; as his mother tried to sue him for no reason. He brings his own daughter into it and states how he would never leave her in any circumstance and he will always be by her side then touches his left arm where his daughter Hailey is tattooed. The video also films Eminem in the present digging up his mum’s grave. Eminem is also at a church this shows eh wants his mother dead and buried. The video is shot in a church, grave yard and also Eminem’s old house. There are a variety of camera shots used in this video for example when he is digging up his mother’s grave it is a long shot and you can see all the pain eh is going through to dig his mums grave. When he is talking about his father leaving it is a close up and you can see the anger in his face. When Eminem talks about his own daughter a medium shot is used so you can see the tattoo and Eminem’s face and the proud look in his eyes.
