This document summarizes different music video styles based on genre. It discusses conventions for metal, rock, indie, pop, and rap music videos. For metal videos, it provides examples of Metallica and Dragonforce that use close-up shots and angles to connect with audiences. Rock videos like Guns N' Roses use black and white with close-ups. Indie videos like George Ezra and Bastille have abstract narratives. Pop videos like Justin Bieber and Shawn Mendes use choreography, lighting, and voyeurism. Rap videos by Eminem and Kanye West have sci-fi themes while Nicki Minaj and Iggy Azalea emphasize sexuality and the "male gaze."
Representation of Pop genre
The document compares music videos from the 1980s and 2000s to show how the pop genre has evolved. Videos from the 1980s like "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" tended to have clear linear narratives that directly reflected the song's message. In contrast, modern videos like Rihanna's "Umbrella" are more complex, symbolic and less directly connected to the lyrics. Sexuality is also more explicitly depicted now than in the past. Gender representations have changed, with men less frequently objectified today. Overall, the document shows that modern pop videos prioritize visual style over clear messaging and are more provocative than videos from the 1980s.
The 1975
The music video for The 1975's "Girls" uses conventions of performance style and mise-en-scene to parody pop music genres and stereotypes. It shows the indie rock band dressed in black against a monochrome background, contrasting with scenes of women in colorful settings and stereotypical gender roles. Reflexivity is used through subtitles and a clipboard to emphasize the video's self-aware send-up of pop music cliches.
music video 1
The music video for The 1975's "Girls" uses conventions of performance style and portrays different music genres through mise-en-scene to create a parody of the pop music genre. Stereotypes of both the indie and pop genres are emphasized through clothing, lighting, colors, and other visual elements. The video also portrays stereotypes of women through costumes and actions of the female characters. Reflexivity and intertextuality are used throughout to further emphasize that the video is a parody and not a straightforward performance or narrative piece.
Music Video Analysis - Marina and the diamonds
The document analyzes the music video for "Blue" by Marina and the Diamonds using Goodwin's Theory of music video analysis. It discusses four key points: 1) How the video demonstrates characteristics of the indie genre through its retro theme and emotive performance. 2) The relationship between lyrics and visuals, though limited without a narrative. 3) How the editing matches the rhythm of the music. 4) How the video meets record label demands through product placement, close-ups to build recognition, and showcasing the artist's performance skills.
Goodwin's Features of a Music Video
Goodwin suggested that music videos can illustrate, amplify, or ignore the meaning of the song. Music videos that illustrate use visuals to directly represent the lyrics, like Katy Perry's "Walls" video depicting feelings of being trapped. Videos can also amplify meaning by adding context without contradicting the song, like Michael Jackson's "Man of the Mirror" highlighting political issues. Sometimes videos contradict the song, like Carly Rae Jepsen's "I Really Like You" video featuring Tom Hanks unrelated to her love life. Key features of music videos include developing motifs part of the artist's image and using the male gaze with women in revealing clothing.
Video analysis
This document analyzes the music video for "F*cked Up World" by the band The Pretty Reckless. It discusses how the band sticks to conventions of rock and metal genres in the video. Key elements analyzed include Taylor Momsen being the central focus, visual correlations between lyrics and images, and references to the song's lyrics through the mise-en-scene. The setting contains sexual and social commentary references.
Music video analysis
The document analyzes and compares the music videos for The Weeknd's "The Hills" and PartyNextDoor's "Come and See Me". It discusses the conventions, camerawork, editing, genres, narratives, performances, representations, institutions, and values/ideologies presented in each video. The document provides detailed analyses of the technical and artistic elements used in each video.
Goodwins Theory
Goodwin's theory of music videos consists of 8 principles:
1. Links between lyrics and visuals (e.g. punching a wall matching lyrics in "Love the Way You Lie")
2. Links between music and visuals (e.g. flashing lights syncing to drops in "This Is What You Came For")
3. Genre characteristics (e.g. rock videos focusing on bands, rap videos involving drinking)
4. Intertextual references
5. Notions of looking at the camera to involve audiences
6. Voyeurism of watching others (mostly women) in sexual ways
7. Demands of record labels regarding artist representation
8. Focus on performance
Conventions: Form
This document discusses common conventions used in music videos. It identifies the following key conventions: narrative structure, live performance, dancing, use of props/locations/costumes (mise-en-scene), featuring the artist, varied cinematography techniques like different shots and angles, editing techniques like jumps cuts and slow motion, use of color to match the song/artist, and inclusion of sound effects or breaks in the music. Many popular music videos from artists like Beyoncé, Bruno Mars, and Katy Perry are cited as examples that employ conventions like narrative, performance, varied camera work, and editing.
All music video analysis
The document analyzes the music video for Rihanna's song "Diamonds". It describes two main characters, with Rihanna being one of them. The video uses cross-cutting between scenes to tell a story that is open to interpretation. Scenes include Rihanna smoking diamonds, floating in a river, and standing alone in a field with a horse. The dark color palette and Rihanna's minimal clothing are meant to set a moody tone. Diamonds are prominently featured as an iconic element due to the song title.
Rihanna (Feat. Jay-z) - Umbrella
This song by Rihanna was a hit that remained number one in the UK for 10 weeks and marked a change to a more sexualized image compared to her previous work. The music video depicts Rihanna in various revealing outfits and poses intended to portray her "good girl gone bad" persona, including scenes of her naked and covered in silver paint. Jay-Z also appears in the video surrounded by scantily-clad women. Throughout the video, lighting, camera work, and choreographed dance routines are used to keep Rihanna as the central focus.
Rihanna (Feat
1) The song "Umbrella" by Rihanna featuring Jay-Z was released in March 2007 and marked a shift to a more mature image for Rihanna compared to her previous work.
2) The music video shows Rihanna in provocative outfits and poses, establishing her new "good girl gone bad" image, while Jay-Z is surrounded by scantily clad women in scenes meant to depict pouring rain.
3) Throughout the video, Rihanna maintains intense eye contact and focus on the audience to emphasize her confident demeanor in contrast to her past persona.
Rihanna –Man Down Analysis
Rihanna's song "Man Down" is a single from her album "Loud" that blends pop and reggae styles. The song deals with the controversial topic of murder but Rihanna has stated it empowers women and highlights social issues. The music video depicts Rihanna shooting a man who had sexually assaulted her, and flashes back to show their meeting at a club leading up to the assault. Through close-ups and expression shots typical of music videos, the video portrays Rihanna taking revenge for the violence against her.
Analysis of music videos
The document summarizes Goodwin's Theory of analyzing music videos. Some key points of the theory include: (1) Music videos demonstrate genre characteristics through the visuals, music, and lyrics. (2) There is often a relationship between the lyrics and visuals as well as the music and visuals. (3) Record labels want close-ups of artists and artists may develop motifs across their work. (4) Videos frequently reference voyeurism of the female body. (5) Videos can be categorized as primarily performance-based, narrative-based, or concept-based, or a combination. The document then provides examples analyzing Katy Perry's "The One That Got Away" video and how it demonstrates points of
Representation of men and women in music videos
This document discusses the representation of men and women in music videos from the 1970s to modern day. In the 1970s, men were seen as idols or ideal husbands, while women were idolized for their looks. In the 1980s, men were portrayed as mavericks in response to more controversial lyrics, while women challenged traditions. The 1990s showed men as lovers and women as both sexual and strong. Today, both genders are equally represented as sexy troublemakers due to themes in their songs.

Evaluation Q2 Media A2
The document discusses the consistency across different products promoting an anti-drug message. The main product is set in woods and a house depicting a "party scene". Both the digipak images and ancillary tasks also feature these woodland settings. All three products use similar or the same images, including the same smoking image. They also use consistent colors, fonts, and feature the same downcast female character who is shown smoking to convey the negative effects of drug use. Overall, the document argues that while each product is somewhat individual, together they effectively combine and lead into one another to deliver an anti-drug message.

Digipaks
A digipak is a type of CD packaging that consists of a book-style cardboard insert housed in a clear plastic case. Digipaks allow the front and back artwork of the insert to be visible from the outside of the case. They were created by MeadWestvaco and became commonly used for albums, singles, and special editions. Digipaks benefit artists by promoting their brand and music through creative design elements that represent their genre and message, which can increase sales and recognition for the artist.
Textual Analysis
Martin Garrix is a 17-year-old DJ whose song "Animals" reached number one. The music video uses various shots and symbolism to represent youth culture. It shows a group of young people in animal masks causing mischief, like setting a car on fire. The masks allow them to hide their identities while rebelling. The video suggests they find excitement in their rebellious acts and are making a statement against stereotypes of youth. By the end, the leader removes his mask, implying he's a normal person, not an "evil mastermind". Throughout, the video edits match the pace of the song's music.

Ellie liked ideas 1, 3, and 5 the most, but idea 3 as it was the most different and had opportunities for visual effects. Amelia liked idea 1 but thought it difficult, and idea 4 for its nice message, disliking idea 5 as cheesy. Miss Lawson thought idea 1 risky and was torn between 3 and 5, leaning towards 3 for effects. Jodie agreed with Miss Lawson, liking idea 3 the best.

Promotion & Advertising
Music albums and singles are advertised through various media to increase sales and awareness. Advertisements appear on platforms like YouTube, where previews of new music videos often play before other videos. iTunes also contains advertisements for upcoming artists and tour dates, targeting its large user base. Television remains a common outlet, with ads placed on channels matching an album's genre. Print magazines in specific music genres or appealing to relevant demographics likewise promote new releases through ads and related editorial coverage. The overall goal is to build hype through targeted marketing across multiple media.
Editing My Main Cover Image
The document describes editing steps taken to improve a main cover image. First, the background was removed so the image would fit on the cover consistently. Then, layers were used to add highlights to hair by painting at 18% opacity, smooth skin by painting at 29% opacity, and darken eyes by painting the eyelids at 29% opacity. Finally, the bottle label was blurred by duplicating the layer, pixelating it, and removing pixels except on the label to avoid copyright issues.
Stylistic Influences
The document discusses stylistic influences for a magazine focused on rock music. It profiles several celebrities associated with rock music genres and their styles, such as Hayley Williams' edgy hair colors and tattoos/piercings of Oli Sykes. It also discusses Dyer's star theory, which suggests that celebrity images are constructed and may not reflect their true personalities.
NME Case Study
NME (New Musical Express) is a British music magazine that was first published in 1952. It was originally a newspaper until 1998. Throughout its history, NME championed new British bands and genres as they emerged, such as rock in the 1960s and Britpop in the 1990s. However, the magazine struggled at times to keep up with changes in the music industry and faced potential closure in the 1970s and 1980s before editors revamped its style and focus. By the late 2000s and 2010s, NME's circulation had declined significantly from its peak levels. The magazine continues to be an influential voice in the British music scene under various editors over the decades.

The video shows a lot of the female body and sexual dance moves.
- 3. Megadeath – in my darkest hour This music video was banned by MTV as the lyrics where thought to be about suicide. This song is a good example of songs banned due to its lyrics. The lyrics include things such as ‘things will be better once im dead and gone’, ‘please god send me on my way’ and more. The singer said the song was about the death of his former band mate.
- 4. Madonna – Justify my love video was extremely explicit, it had nudity, sexual scenes, This bisexuality, s&m and voyeurism. The video is very open with what it shows.
