This week we’re going to be watching some of the videos from the playlist below.
But first. What the hell is a music video anyway? Moreover, how can I understand them better so I can make my own? Some thoughts for your brain…
First Task: (Music Video Form & Conventions Blog Post)
You need to study four of these videos carefully so that you can:
- Define the media form (what’s the blueprint for a music video)
- Spot some technical conventions
- Think a bit about genre and how that’s coming across.
- Start thinking about stories in music videos.
Make a copy, complete with notes / ideas then save as a PDF and upload to your blog.
This is your first piece of research for your own music video, so do it well!
