  • Thought through beat (seeing what the lyrics mean in your head).
  • Relationship between the song and visuals.
  • Narrative and performance of the song.
  • Technical aspect of a music video.
  • Star Image (protagonist), lots of camera shots making him/her the centre of attention.

Then the second step (main voice of the song), the voice of the artist would be very unique compared to others and will give the person a form of identification that can be related to the star image or singer. The third step would be the story of an artist which he is trying to tell within his song. It can establish him as a story teller. And the music video can aid this by showing us the video through the vocals of the song. ]]> 2018-03-27 17:23:25 UTC https://padlet.com/daniel_wylie/j6q4553qfi1m/wish/246608808 Relation between the music and visuals daniel_wylie https://padlet.com/daniel_wylie/j6q4553qfi1m/wish/246609017 There are three ways visuals are used to promote a song:

    Illustrate: music videos use certain images & shots to illustrate/explain the meaning of lyrics to their song and the genre. For example Jessie J's 'Price Tag' she says 'money, money, money' and money is falling from a tree.

    Disjuncture: In this situation, the meaning of the song is completely ignored in the music video.

    Amplify: Repeat-ability - This is when the images and camera shots are manipulated and shown repeatedly through out the music video and is drummed into our vision. Relation between the music and visuals.

    Andrew believed that a music video can promote a song by though the way it analysis the lyrics. This is shown in many music videos when a character does exactly what the song says. Example is when the song lyrics are jump, jump, jump and on the music video there are characters/actors are actually jumping.

It helps to make the song look more realistic and also giving the audience a special connection and good understanding of the song. A good example of this is the song 'ROAR' by Katy Perry. She is the main actor in the song and also the singer and it helps the video by making the song and video look more realistic and this also helps to engage the audience. ]]> 2018-03-27 17:26:21 UTC https://padlet.com/daniel_wylie/j6q4553qfi1m/wish/246610319 Star Image (protagonist), lots of camera shots making him/her the centre of attention. daniel_wylie https://padlet.com/daniel_wylie/j6q4553qfi1m/wish/246610493 Goodwin referred to the star image as a very vital aspect of a music video, by making the music video look more appealing to the audiences and bringing a unique style to the video in a way that he is portrayed. The start image is always very unique in the way he presents himself, the costume, moves and appearance. This help to promote the artist/star’s image in public and also helps to promote the video and helps to build a public reputation. ]]> 2018-03-27 17:26:39 UTC https://padlet.com/daniel_wylie/j6q4553qfi1m/wish/246610493 Technical aspect of a music video daniel_wylie https://padlet.com/daniel_wylie/j6q4553qfi1m/wish/246610648 ndrew says that the technical aspect helps to hold the music video together through the use of Mise-en-Scene, Special effects, Sound and Editing . Lighting and colour helps to set the mood for the music video and create emphasis on significant parts of the song to create a dramatic effect and thrill the audience. Mise-en-Scene is also very vital to the production of the music video, it can help the artist gain authentication and also make his work appear more professional. The beats of the song are also very useful as they can help to create effective cuts that go with the rhythm of the song to make the music video look more entertaining. ]]> 2018-03-27 17:26:56 UTC https://padlet.com/daniel_wylie/j6q4553qfi1m/wish/246610648
