The Purpose Of Music Videos
By Alex Mason
Music videos of Today!
• Music videos today are becoming more common as all the
songs that enter the charts on the radio have all got music
videos to.
• Sometimes when unknown artist make a good song it becomes
popular on youtube and then shoots up into the charts and then
a new song comes along and another new video.
• Artists are making more and more songs to go onto their new
albums and a few of the songs may enter the radio charts and
become more popular than others and then the artist creates a
music video for those specific songs.
How do music videos promote
the song and interact with
viewers?
• The music videos have to be memorable and have to relate to
the song so that the viewers knows what’s happening.
• When a listener downloads an album of a specific artist (e.g.
Eminem) their might be a few music videos on the album so that
the listener doesn’t have to go onto youtube all the time to look
up the music video.
• The music video is a chance for the artist to show off their skills
in the music industry and showing they can make a good song
with a good music video.
• Sometimes the songs can mean something to the artist and the
listener, so a music video could relate not just to the artist but
also to the listener/ viewer.

Extension Of Income
• Music videos helps promote bands and artists after the album
has been released after the album has long been sold, so that
people still find the music good and entertaining while watching
the music video.
• Artists for example: Michael Jackson and his music video
Thriller. He is still remembered for that specific music video as it
was one of the best music videos of al time as it was thrilling,
entertaining and energetic.
• Also PSY who did the music video Gangnam Style; this music
video has gone down in history and will always be remembered
for being the first music video to reach over 1billion views.
Extension Of Outlets
•Music videos used to be shown on a TV programme called
MTV. Which would increase the views and sales of the music
videos.
•Unfortunately now MTV doesn’t shows music videos
anymore as its become a general TV programme showing
different TV shows.
•Music videos now are shown on separate music channels
which will show the best music videos of each genre and of
each century.
