Andrew Goodwin identified five key aspects of music videos that audiences should pay attention to: the star image, narrative/performance, relation to the song's visuals, technical aspects, and "thought beats." He also noted that music videos are used to promote songs by illustrating, amplifying, or disjuncturing the song's meanings. Technical elements like lighting, editing, and camera work are important for holding the video together and emphasizing parts of the song. Music videos also aim to develop the star's image over time through techniques like close-ups and intertextual references.
