Genre music video analysis
By Luca Riccio
Introduction
• The genre that I am going to analyze is pop
and the music video that I have chosen for this
task is justin timberlake- suit and tie
2: What is the genre of the music
video?
The way you can tell this music video fits the genre
pop is by the costume they are wearing the artist is
wearing a suit and tie which is what the song is
called, this costume is very popular at the moment in
fashion. This could help me with my music video
because I will know what kinds of costumes I must
use when making my music video.
A visual element that helps tell us that
it’s a pop video is the dancers in the
background behind JT, this tells us it is
a pop video as it is a convention of a
pop video. This could help me when
making my video so when I start to film
my video I can find out what the
conventions are for this genre.
3.Analyse the setting and décor of the
music video.
The setting at the start of the video
shows JT in his living room on his piano
which shows he must be wealthy. It also
represents the lifestyle he’s living in a
big house with expensive décor such as
chair with expensive materials, girls
massaging his back etc. This can help
me when making my video as I will know
which is the right setting for this genre
and it will follow the conventions of this
genre.
The reason why the director may have
chose the setting and décor like this is to
show what life would be like if you were
rich and famous and he wants the
audience to put themselves in JT place.
The setting help show that the video is
pop because it’s very modern and the
narrative of the video fits in with the
genre as it shows the lifestyle of a rich
person and helps get across to the
audience that everyone has a dream.
4.Analyze the costumes of the music
videos
The costume and clothing that JT is wearing fits in
with the genre pop as it is very fashionable and
popular with people and it could suggest he is very
wealthy. This could help when deciding what
costumes would be right for my video and what is
conventional in this genre. The dancers behind JT
are also wearing suits shows they are with him and
shows that it’s very popular with everyone. The
director has chose this costume for JT so it shows
what the fashion and what the most popular thing to
wear is at the moment within fashion and the suits
represent the narrative in that when you’re wealthy
this is what your life could be like.
The artist is dressed different to the characters in the
scene where he is in the recording studio, he is
dressed in a shirt and waist coast and the people
playing the instrument are dressed casual t-shirt and
jeans. Which shows he is the important person in
the scene/ video and helps the audience know that.
This can help me with my video in that when
deciding what costumes to pick for my video I can
also look at what it can show and represent in my
video.
5. Analyze the props in the music video
• The piano has been used as a prop in this music video. It could connote his passion for music
which also links well because he is a singer and it could represent a passion he has for playing it.
The director has chose the piano as a prop because it shows that he’s playing it which shows he
likes music which goes well because he’s the artist in the video. He also uses the piano to
represent a passion that JT has in the video and helps the audience understand what he has a
passion for. Another prop that he chose was the microphone and the stand that JT uses when he’s
singing and dancing, he has used this prop in this video because he helps us know that he’s the
singer and he’s the main person in the video.
6. Analyze the body language and
movement in the music video
In this music video on the right JT body
language and movement shows he is the
main character and singer as he is placed
at the front. The director has chose JT to
move and stand like that because he
wants to people to know who the main
person in the video is and the body
language tells us he is the one singing as
he has his arms out. This fits In with the
genre as a convention of a pop genre is a
the artist singing is at the front to help the
audience know who the artist is. The
dancers are placed behind him which
suggests they are dancing with him but
JT is in front.
7. Performance
The artist in the music video plays an
important role. The way we can tell he
is playing an important role is through
the video the camera is focused on him
which tells the audience that he is the
artist. Furthermore the position he is
standing shows when the dancers are
behind show he is the important and is
the main person. This is important
when making my video that I make it
clear who the artist is and how I make
him important in the video.
The performance of the artist adds a
jazzier edge to the pop video with the
dancing and the smart suits.
8. Narrative
In this music video there is a narrative, JT the artist takes part in
the narrative. The lyrics link with the narrative in the story as the
lyric ‘I be on my suit and tie’ links with the narrative as he is
wearing a suit and tie in the video. The narrative helps the
audience know what the song is about and lyrics link with the
narrative. This could be helpful when making my music video
because I can take some lyrics in the song I choose to use and
link it into my video so it helps audience understand the music
video.
